Hello? I live just outside of Albany and have both a road course and drag strip in my basement. To view pics of the strip go to HO Drag Racing Clubs view Nassau Drag way. There are a couple of us that race every type HO slot. We are always looking for more racers.I believe there is a track in the Syracuse area called slot car central. Keep in touch. Vince

That body is made by DRHO Steve Geary in Norfolk NB. It comes without a wing or blower. He also painted and decaled the car fo Sluggercan.com. They cost around $5.00 plus shipping.

Hey all. I have a question about mounting Vincent rims. When mounting them on T-jet chassis do you use standard t-jet axles or longer AFX axles to mount the deep dish style rims? Also can they be mounted on .059 axles for inline motor magnet cars?

Nassau is about 30 to 45 minutes outside Albany. I am not in Nassau County. Valley Stream is downstate NY correct?

Hey every one I have a new source for decals for t-jets. Rick at flamingcolors.com/ has just started to get into custom graphics for t-jets. He deals primarily with 1/64 diecast. I have sent him some t-jet cars which he scanned and adjusted his decals to t-jet size. You can order any of his decals in either clear or white back decal paper to fit the bodies listed on the site in this post. I have a couple cars done and will post pics.

Chris the black chassis were made from the worst of the worst recycled plastic. The newer gray chassis are much more durable. I was advisied to contact Tomy for replacements of the chassis that exploded on impact with both the wall and or floor. LOL

Just a quick reply to the chassis debat. A stiffer chassis is used in myNeo powered pro stock car I have. I have the exact setup in a stock SG+ with ceramic magnets and the rear axle pops out when the car launches. What I mean by exact is the only difference between the two chassis is the magnets and chassis stiffness.I agree with johnbalich. Wild guess would say that a stiffer chassis better........any flex is normally absorbing power..............................However..............a flexible chassis might launch 'softer' which may or may not be a good thing per individual car. I now in our road racing the softer chassis is easier to drive.

Hey all. I am the owner of the drag strip in Nassau New York. It is a Maxx trax with a 30 volt capacitor charged power source. At this time I only have one power tape to each lane. The measured timing length is 20ft 6.5 inches. ET's are as follows.Some box stock T-jet 1.999-2.3 or so. Stock AFX non mag 1.1999-1-250. Stock mag 1.000-1.17. In line motor cars range any where between .393-.800. I will post some more pics of the track and my collection of cars. BTW Dave maybe some day this summer we can meet at LV drag way. ;D
