I posted a pic of this track over in the Unique and different track designs thread, because at the time I was unable to embed the video that introduced me to it. At my request, the filmmaker Michael Kramer has kindly uploaded the video to YouTube so I can now post it here. Enjoy!

Chris,

 

I really did know that... just had a brain cramp. Relocating the thread now...

 

Thanks.

Can you tell if those cars use magnets? They appear to be nailed to the track going around those corners!

Hi Jim,
 
They do not have magnets, try THIS SITE for more accurate info on the cars.

Looks like Northland Racecenter received some local media coverage just in the last day or so, with the angle being suprise at seeing a woman involved in such a "many" activity."

 

The caption on this professional YouTube video is: "Curves on curves in tight spaces: In slot car racing, it is almost like the real racing world of Formula 1 racing and co. The fun is not only interesting to men - as Beate Wiesel proves."
