Dad: “Hey Derrick, when a stranger pulls up and says, “get in the bus.. I have a slot car track…”, what are you going to say?” Derrick: “I’m getting in the bus…”
I was interested in doing something like this in my garage; do you have a breakdown of the parts you used? And couldn't you run the track directly off the batteries?
Oh yes it'll run for days off the batteries, but I also have a fridge and a cabin heater in the van so really the panels are for that, but the inverter gives more options and the slot car track is an obvious choice :D I've got 3 x 120W panels (generic) and a Victron MPPT 100-30 solar controller, two 120AH deep cycle gel batteries, and a Renogy 1000W sinewave inverter total overkill for running a slot car track
Nice one, Dave! You need a sign outside! Anyone that beats you wins a tenner. 😂
Nice! Now that is dedication to the hobby! Great job! 😎

That’s pretty darn slick. My wife has a camper van she converted but don’t think she would let me set up a track inside of it. 👍
Really cool Dave! You're gonna need a bigger van now!
Awesomeness!
That’s neat Dave.
Superb Dave 👍👍👍👍

Brilliant Dave! Race and drive at the same time. 😂😂😂

Cool, that almost as big as my home track! 😮
It's not the size, it's what you do with it 😉
Cooool🤣🤣🤣

Great but now you need a hotel bed to sleep in - 😀
HAHA, fortunately the entire underneath of the double bed is a storage area so if it fits on the top it'll fit underneath :D
Nice but where are you going to sleep now? 😂
Can't sleep... slot cars!
🤣🤣🤣
Have fun Dave as I'm sure you will
