In the past I have read several opinions about racing with magnets and racing without magnets. I will say that in the past month I have raced with IHSR with no magnets and had a blast. Last Wednesday night I went to a Hobby Town in Virginia Beach, Virginia and raced with a club who races everything in an IROC format with readings of 350 on the magnet marshal a common occurrence. Tomorrow I will be at The Barn Burners Slot Car Club and race CanAm, TransAm and Vintage NASCAR with mandated ranges from 200 to 220 readings on the magnet marshal. I have found the racing to be somewhat different at these clubs but the fun factor is constant. So, which is best? I think that the answer is that the type of racing that keeps the club happy and healthy is the best. So, I have found three different best ways to race 1/32 slot cars.
