I put together a slot car with a 1.0 or so, ohm armature, running it on an autoworld track with the requisite magnets for that armature. The pinion melted. What are some suggestions that I might try to keep my pinion from melting?
Sounds like the cars too low. Id recommend larger tires F/R but typically a 1 ohm car is going to need metal gears. They are available at viperscaleracing.com
Glad you touched on this topic. Well covered.
Very informative food for thought.👍😎

Great info, but I run magnetless T-jets, and I love your tracks. I spliced two of them together to make my own.
Very cool!
