I love the channel. You have such enthusiasm. I'm trying to plan a track. Scalextric has some great sets. You have really inspired me. I too have limited space. Wonderful channel.
I am 60 years young and this brings out the wonderful 6 year old in me. Fond memories of my Christmas present as a kid. That classic basic figure 8 type track and it took over the living room floor for as long as i got away with it!
Greetings from Reno, Nevada USA. THANK YOU so much for your excellent video. Still deciding between Scalextric and Carrera. Please keep the videos coming. God Bless you and THE GREAT PEOPLE AND ÇOUNTRY OF GREAT BRITIAN.
Go carrera, my mates spewing he didn’t now that he has power issues. If you go digital you can still buy scalextric cars and run a carrera chip in them from what I’m told
I love it! Every year, for the Christmas holiday season, I build a track which my family races on. My kids are all grown up but we still enjoy getting the Scaley out. Your video has been an excellent impetus to get me going. Thank you!
I used VELCRO , a small piece at each end of a track piece is Amal to hold track to board without moving when tilting the track upright. Super easy to remove track pieces if needed.
Fair point there. But I was basing mine on the Top gear test track. That said, if it didn't have to be portable it would definately have a bridge! Thanks for watching.
Wow how exciting, love scalextrics! We have a huge layout in our conservatory. Just one question, why not just run the arc pro base? It will do all you want for timing plus pit stops,fuel,tire wear and wireless controllers too. It really was a game changer when we changed to it.:)
Currently the Arc One seems to do all I want it to at this point. But I'll definately will look at expansion. Loads more to come soon. Thanks for watching.
@@johnny-S thanks I will let you know how I get on. I built a bit of your track and worked out I need 1.1 x 1.7 at least problem is that’s an awkward size board. Thanks for replying
Currently building something similar so glad came across this for some tips. Not keen on Scalextric track (cars are great), too flimsy, I like Ninco track as a compromise between Carrera and Scalextric, it much stiffer, width is between The two, and there are joining pieces to connect Scalextric and Ninco if you have both. Like the use of grass line carpet material to simulate grass I’ll have to find some
GDay mate great video always like looking at new track set up hey if you want to save time connect BOTH analog and Digital power bases in ( then power up the one your going to be racing with I’m 2;years into mine just search #popasmurfraceway
Don't do it it won't work I already tried almost the same setup The track is too frail The plastic pieces that hold the track together are going to constantly be snapping off and you're going to ruin the track
"I think publicly shaming cars for having regular sexual appetites is rude." (turns up screen brightness setting...) "Oh, SLOT cars... Well that's different, then, innit?"
Well not sure why we didnt see cars going around but of course slot car track is a much deeper thing than toy car racing. Great stupud video. Keep it up. Dull.

So happy I came across this video. Thank you so much showing how to make a portable track.
Useful and beautiful thank you and have a nice day (🇮🇹).
Great video. Just in the process of building a Carrera track and looking at table supports so the idea of a table tennis table was appreciated!👍🇦🇺😎
Glad it was helpful! Car speed tests coming soon! Thanks for watching.
Nice track set-up
It's been 50 odd years since I had a scalextric set .. .. you have my attention :)
Great stuff. Thanks for watching!
Great video. Thanks!
You're welcome!
sweet i just finished my 1/32 scalextric #9 power puff girls Jerry Newman car ill be over some time Wednesday~
Great to see a new slot car video! Where are you planning on putting a digital lane changer or two?
Currently looking at getting the analogue elements working first, and then taking it from there - loads more to come! Thanks for watching.
Hallo John,
nice idea, i think, i have maybe the Same, with Pasting Tables 6 Pieces.
Sorry my english is not very well.l
Greetings from Germany.
Yes - pasting tables where my second choice! More cars and upgrades coming soon. Thanks for watching
What base board did you use- thats strong and lighter enough to pack away.
Stellar!👍👍😎🇺🇸
Hi, you do not need to swap the power panels. Keep them both installed just plug in the wires alternatively if you need digital or analog :-) Cheers.
Sounds good, keep both sections of track isolated then just plug in jumper leads to the track
How did you end up cutting down the sand pit border pieces?
Try Roger Barker slots at A1 slot cars best collection of new and second hand slot cars ..
How did you attach the track to the boards?
I used VELCRO , a small piece at each end of a track piece is Amal to hold track to board without moving when tilting the track upright. Super easy to remove track pieces if needed.
awesome, thank you
You're welcome!
Suzuka, Nurburgring, old Monza all have bridges.

Can you tell me the size of the boards you used as that is a great idea and a decent track
The boards are 2m x 1.2m each - two of them. Thanks for watching.
@@johnny-S thanks I will let you know how I get on. I built a bit of your track and worked out I need 1.1 x 1.7 at least problem is that’s an awkward size board. Thanks for replying
Hi Jonny I want to make something similar. Have you got the link for the software? How much did the boards and table tennis tables cost?
also what's the size og the tables and track?
@@MattLester1988 yes what is the size of both boards. Was it an 8 by 4 cut in half?
I built a h.o. scale banked nascar track with souped up afx cars and it was so fast you couldnt see the cars
Hallo, why you Don t use the new power base 7042🤔, digital and analogue work s more easely 👍

Thanks for the tip. Loads more to come soon. Thanks for watching.
I do not like over and under tracks, because they are not realistic.
Where is the line changes if you want to run 4 cars
Great observation - they're due to arrive soon. More cars and upgrades coming soon. Thanks for watching
Don't do it it won't work I already tried almost the same setup The track is too frail The plastic pieces that hold the track together are going to constantly be snapping off and you're going to ruin the track
Thanks for your feedback. It's survived so far. Thanks for watching.

You can see cars going round the track in the later videos. With some brand new cars on the way. Thanks for watching.
