You’re hilarious, like a kid in a candy store. The amount of energy you put into playing with a toy is incredible. The announcing while playing, it’s a great video to watch.
I am contemplating getting into Slot cars as I remember playing with a set when I was a kid and having a blast. Now as an adult...I can do what I want and buy more toys haha! Love your vids sir and wish ya'll were closer!
I am so glad I found this channel!! I fell in love with slot car racing as a kid & my brother & I would get a set every Christmas!! I miss those days so I decided to get back into the hobby as I am 47 years old! I miss the smell of the cars & the old trigger sound when you pulled it! Aw man this is great content!! Salute!!
My son is 14 and autistic and loves model trains and Hot Wheels cars. I'm 46 and love racing. I think I just found something we can bond over.
Wireless...Wow! We could only dream of such when I was growing up.
You are correct!
Wow! What a great HO SLOT car track set !! This is a fantastic set ! This is the best auto world has ever produced in my opinion, what a game changer !!!!
Thank you Todd! We agree so much this should be a great Christmas for slot cars!
Great video! So glad they listened about remaking of the old style russkit controls, the wireless touch is also a nice addition. I remember watching kids going after their wrecked car with control in hand pulling half of the track off the table. Kudos to autoworld for producing such a nice set. This could be the set that gets more newcomers and people who left the scene fustrated getting things working right. Nice to see how you put everything together and had it running right off the bat!
Couldn't agree more!
I was that kid that pulled the track off the table
@@ST-cy6we😂😂😂
"I'm panting here".... I love this channel
Thank you so much!
You have the BEST enthusiasm always! Thanks for sharing your passion with us!! Happy Racing and God Bless!!!
Thanks, you too!
wow a rare great video from Bryan lol really another great video from Bryan like the cars with that set the wireless controllers are pure genius cant wait to see the grandkids face thank you pro tinker toys
Thank you so much!
Very cool that you pointed out what hand controller to replicate excellent job excellent idea
Great review! Autoworld is coming out with some great stuff all of the time.
It sure is!
Superb in all ways! The Hobby has needed a new 4 lane for years. This is it! The only thing I wish they'd done was offer optional track plans. With that much track I'd say some pretty cool 4 lanes could be built.
That is a great idea! Key an eye out Bryan is going to make some other 4 lane track plans with the contents of this track. We will create a sharable PDF and blog post about this in the future.
WOW!!!! Simply WOW!!!!
Agree! This set is a riot.
GREAT TRACK
Hey I just discovered this channel, really enjoying it. I subbed and keep the great videos coming. Do you sell/make videos about RC Trucks etc.?
I feel like he just sold me on a new track. That looks awesome
Awesome adult fun...great memories
Love this track. 71 Charger and 71 RR... great cars..
Thank you! We agree!
excellent commentary spokesman for this product...wish i had the house and space to buy and layout two of these beauties.
The variable voltage is perfect 2 run the viper, bulldog, bsrt, jag and tfx chassis...NICE❤
Oh yea!!! The A-Team set was my favorite!!! 🤣
Loving the terminal track
Awesome to hear!
That's a nice set up
Agree! Thank you for watching and commenting.
yes it is a great idea......great set ...
I think so too!
For the money, great set! More of an “introduction to the hobby” type of set. Heads-up that this set will fit on a 4X8 foot table. (Easy to place on a 4X8 foot piece of plywood.) For less than $400.00 I think it is a good value. I have been involved in the hobby since 1972… If money is not an issue for you, Viperscale racing makes the best HO Slot Car Racing tracks, cars, after market hop-up parts, etc.
Thank you, we agree this is a great set to get people started in the hobby!
Brain are they going to make a two lane track piece with the cordless controller so we can add it to our two land sets .....that would be awesome
This looks fantastic. When you said slot car club, those were exactly my thoughts. I am looking into starting a slot car club at my son's middle school. This would be great to get up and running. What type of sensitivity do the wireless controllers have? I see they run the X-traction (with neo magnet), and I'm sure they'll run the Thunderjet Ultra fine as well. Have you had the opportunity to run a traditional T-jet (Aurora) or T-jet clone (Dash, OS3)? Also, well done for showing the internals of the controller. That was one of my areas of curiosity. So cool that Auto World went with an electronic controller over a resistor-based controller. I'm really hoping that the electronic controller has the sensitivity range to run true T-jet (or clone) through the X-Traction or higher down-force 🤞. Well done Auto World and well done ProTinkerToys!
Great question! The Tjets run great, we still need to test how well the AFX/Racemasters work + some other cars. We also will be tearing some hand throttles apart in the future to get a better look at them. This is the first demo set so we don't want to tear them up yet. Thank you very much for watching and commenting!
This on the super speedway set would be sweet
I am not a fan of Auto World cars but may have to get this set for the track. I have 1/32 scale now but have been wanting a H.O. track for fun also. I am glad to see the new sizes of track.
Awesome to hear! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Are there spare 4-lane segments for add-ons /
Replacement? I only see the 2-lane on AW’s website.
My only concern is I wish AutoWorld had 2 Power Pack for the Four Lane.....I have a Large AFX 4 Lane Track and Run One Power Pack For Each Lane..........Great Show Brian. Set Looks Awesome.
Thank you! Yes, that would have been a great idea!
Hi Brian nice set. Does AFX have any thing new in 4 lane set ups.
They have nothing new at the moment but I know they are still working on the digital lap counter. We have only been waiting about 2 years for it.
2 quick questions - Does the 5" section that is included contain the electronics & sensors for a digital lap counter; or is it just a placeholder that will be swapped out when the final digital lap counting solution is available? Question #2 - If I purchase additional cars, do they need to be "X-traction Ultra-G" as well to keep all of the cars competitve? and thanks for a great review.
Yes to the cars, and we will be racing this set on Thursday Race Night, I will check the 5" track.
Sweet
Thank you!
Can we add extra track to that and to keep it four lane
The old timer is pretty funny
Beginner question, would this fit on a 4x8 plywood table? even if it's 2 lane?
EDIT: And i dont really care if the entire track doesnt fit, just most of it preferably
is the Victory400 slot car set good idea to star with
I know it's very early in the process. But. do you know if Aftermarket wireless controllers will be able to be paired? For Example a SCP-3 on oxigen wireless.
That is a great question! I will be asking AW about this and hopefully get some good news :D
ILL BE ORDERING FROM TINKER SOON..LIKE I PROMISED THEM😊
If they have a HO track where you could run your car against 5 ghost cars like a CARRERA , I'm all in !!!
9 to 24 V
Thank you Chris!
What about a dedicated Pit stop track?
Would this layout fit on an 8’ X 4’ surface?
Id like to know if there is any lag between the trigger and the car? With a wire it’s an instant power.
Some people have an issue with it but there are a bunch of people who don't have any issues. This is a great starter set - th-cam.com/video/EkfBc3Iem9Y/w-d-xo.html
As an owner of a 4 lane AFX already -this is refreshing - the whole wireless deal BUT..... how do the racers know what lane to put the car back into when it comes off? Lane paint? Does the wireless pairing ALWAYS get the same lane??
Each hand throttle can be paired with every lane. Also "painting" or coloring does help!
@@ProTinkerToys Terrific!
I wish they would make the NASCAR D shape set with 4 lanes wireless Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro along with NASCAR Trucks.
My question is are they going to get any Nascar licenseing? Because I have alot of Ho scale cars😢😢😢 😊
You need to do a 8 lane set up if possible
That would be pretty intense! One bad thing about 8 lane is how tight the inside corners are.
What size is this layout?4x8’
We need an Ho 2 lane track timer.
Bought the stand-alone Wireless terminal setup from you and it's not good. VERY jerky, its on/off as they are throttled to full, plus there's about a 1 second delay, so when you gun it on a straight it seems to wait till it enters a corner then speeds onto the floor. Ill try to call AW for support cause the way this is its a waste of $130
Can you purchase the terminal track by itself I have plenty of track I just want the terminal track alone.....
That is in the pipeline that we will eventually have that available by itself. We don't have a release date for that yet but we will in the future.
Could you make a large oval track with this
Great question, and that is possible. Bryan will be designing some other track options with this set. We create a PDF hopefully in the future.
This looks to be a nicer set than Tommy’s 4 lane International. Any longer than 36 feet and voltage drop starts to become an issue? Nice cars but I think l would get rid of the “Victory 400” white lettering on the 2 pieces of track as it looks tacky. This awesome racetrack deserves to be permanently set up on a raised platform. Accessories made for HO Railroads could be used to add to the realism.
NO Sir the F1's stay on the track way better and you can make 18 different layouts wireless control is the only + and those lap counters are super tacky. Lets not get carried away 🤣🤣🤣
We agree this is a great set and should be set up all the time!
We are working on designing new layout options for this set and will hopefully be sharing them in the future. But you are correct everyone has a few different preferences
I have their showroom shootout set. Great cars and great track but the controllers are god awful and takes the fun out of it. Really want to pick this set up. Can’t go wrong with it
I bought this set. Expect problems with the terminal track. Mine was replaced free all three times. Figuring it was an early run issue I bought a second one. So I’m using a plug in system now. I feel they rushed the wireless or chose a poor electronic manufacture. Great beyond compare when the wireless worked. What ever manufacture gets wireless nailed down will be the Hero of slot car racing. They have had this for years in model railroading. Im not sure why it’s riddled with problems. As for the set like I said I have two. Different track pieces make all the difference. Bang for buck it’s better than the AFX international set.
As for cars Afx wins hands down.
Auto world cars varied in performance. A lot. Sum it up.
Victory 400 is a track building set.
If they tact that wireless down they win. Expect issues unless they worked the bugs out. Cars are weak overall.
It is worth $360.00? Yes.
$400 that is high. I will need to find cheaper then that. But great video
What size table will this setup fit on 4x8 or 5x10. .... ?
This will fit on a 4x8 table.
Thank you...
The cars in order... #67 Buddy Arrington, #3 Cale Yarborough, #50 AJ Foyt and #96... wait for it... Dale Earnhardt... yes these are accurate and awesome!
Thank you for sharing!
@@ProTinkerToys Auto World is tempting me back to HO... especially with the terrible direction Scalextric is going in... can't even get #3 and #4 turns in America anymore... and the quality of the cars goes down as the price goes up....
how big of a table do you need ?
It JUST fits on a 4x8' thankfully!
How big is that table
4x8, Thank you for watching
Want to make it bigger
Anyone else have problems racing AFX Mega G cars on this track?
dude looks like kenny wallace
HAHA
It's nice but the price tag is not. I rather just go and buy a 1:32 scale size race tracks with the bigger cars than to spend that much money on the small HO scale. Maybe come down on a price a bit then lots of people will buy. 👍
HEY BRI...YES IM A MARRIED ,FAMILY MAN..GOTTA HAVE ONE SOON! BY THE BY, DO YOU HAVE A SPARE BEDROOM IN YOUR SHOP FOR RENT...JUST IN CASE❤
These comments aren't towards you Ryan. Or anything that you guys do. Keep up the good work on your vids...
My comments are from my experience with AW tracks.. Just my opinion...
Here's what they need to change..
The lap counters need to be at the start finish. Also, the split section ap the lap counters is a bad idea.. I don't know why they make them that way? I guess they're trying to appeal to the kids.. There should never be split lanes!! They should have included 18" curves.. 6" curves are too tight.. It looks like a nice layout. However, the so called Z connections are so loud and the track pieces don't fit together well.. Very bumpy!! Auto worlds track is soooo noisy, and the turns are really loud and the clicking noise drove me crazy. I had a Rokar Indy car track in the 90s and it didn't make a sound. 117" 4 Lane F1 road course.. The old track slipped together side to side, it didn't push together end to end.. Auto world needs to make a better product. One of the worse things about AW track is the 15" straights are humped in the middle. I was told that AW uses the old molds from the 90s. The track was so bumpy that I had to screw every single piece down. And it still was horrible. I didn't have to screw one single piece down on the old Rokar track!!! If you want a good track go and get one from Viperscaleracing!!! That's what I did.. I actually sold everything that I had bought from AutoWorld, track and cars, all gone. This is just my opinion from my experience with AW products. This isn't intended to make someone not want to buy this track, tracks like this one are good for kids, not the pro racers. So I think whoever gets this track will be happy with it. KEEP RACING EVERYONE!!!!
Thank you very much for sharing! We will take not of this and share with AW
Sorry Brian, I don't why I said Ryan?
Thats ok!
Okay somebody needs to go back to school if it is a 1/8 whatever size radius an six or an eight or a twelve inch radius it takes two tracks for a quarter Circle and four tracks for a half circle and for one quarter circles takes one track for a quarter Circle and two pieces of track for a half circle just an FYI
Can I use my adjustable power supply from my afx 2 lane the biggest one they make for this track this is awesome four lane ready to go and no need to buy 500 dollars in extra track and power supply and wires to turn a huge two lane afx into a 4 lane and will mega g plus cars work on this and will afx 70 ohm controllers work as wellthid is cool nvm is wireless I want those vintage NASCARs and looks fast enough as is. Those cars will look good on my 6 lane dirt oval banked ho track I built that is a true half mile 30 degrees scale ho banking oval track with dirt paint effects added with airbrush on the track pieces it's beautiful it's a ho true scale halfile high bank dirt oval I want these cars for the track I got reason it's it painted to look like dirt is cuse it's a wood routed 6 lane it's a blast we have sprint cars and street stocks dirt latemodels dirt modifieds and winged sprints and wingless sprints I want these and make them our super stock class lol
