Hot Wheels VideoHello Race fans. Our video is done and although I must admit that is a little
on the cornball side, it is doing very well in the ranks. Thank all of you who viewed it. If you have not seen it and would
like too please visit our Hot Wheels Page at the site. I have been having a blast with these cars
all week and have been back to the mall several times to collect more cars. I have been experimenting with the placement of
the cars behind the starting gate and the effect it has on run times. This week I will be experimenting
with vertical velocity. Is an essential free fall out of the gate better? Or would one long slow taper be more effective.
Once performance can be measured, it is only human nature to strive for improvement. We
also made a custom Christmas Tree that better suits the bird's eye view from the starting platform characteristic of gravity
powered raceways.
I also have four more video's on the slate. Oh yes,
and there will be slot cars. Thank you. Daniel

Hot Wheels TimerA few months ago a friend of mine made a youtube video of his Hot Wheels Race Track using one of our systems
to get some times on all his cars. Let's just say that the public response was enough to prompt me to dedicate a page
at our site to Hot Wheels Tracks. Yesterday I was lucking enough to score a Hot Wheels set in
Udon Thani Thailand. Tomorrow I should have a new video out. Those little cars are running times in the same neighborhood
as stock HO cars!
