I built my track and believe I've ordered everything I need.

Track, braid, chassis, controllers, cars, power supply, and timing system.

Anything I'm missing, fellas?

Thanks.
Mark Williams

Don't know what kind of racing you'll be doing.

 

Many tracks spray glue the track for use with sponge tires. If that's the way you're going, you'll need naphtha (Coleman fuel substituted sometimes), Champion light glue, rags, a spray bottle, and a strong back. A Swiffer mop makes it easier on the back, to shove the rags around.

 

If you're not going to use spray glue on your track... nevermind. :)

Sounds like the only thing you need is racers. :D

Shop vac to clean the top of the track and dust bunnies from under - at least monthly.
