Set ID; is this right?

maybe the track is 1/38?
the cars look like artin (or clones), so maybe just a type and it should read 1/48 :-/

i know, no help (again), just BS

[MikeySlotCars]

Only one good way to find out , just buy the set if it's cheap enough for you?
If you do buy it let us know what is the real scale of the cars & tracks & if the are worth the price?

Got one that looks like it. Not the same company, but cars won't work on my Carrera Go track.( I know, battery operated ) Not worth the money and cars are smaller that i expected ! Kept cars for static purpose only ! :whistle:

Why would a slot car battery operated won't work on Carrera Go track or any other tracks that have power by wall warts?

Got some 6 volts motors (Carrera battery sets) that works fine at 12v & even higher
I use the motor to put it in my Ferrari 599 it makes the car a really fast one & take off like lightning , at only 9 volts...
Kind of like putting a bigger engine in a smaller car... more POWER!!! :mrgreen:

It has so much power that at 12 or 14 volts (Not sure which I used , maybe 16v?) one of the rear wheel came off on a straight by spinning so fast while the back of the car was drifting from side to side for about 5 feet on the 11 feet straight... :lol:
& yes! the motor is still in the ferrari & still running fine & fast... :D

One picture I took when the wheel came off



Anyhow if you got a variable voltage there is no problem using battery operated car on any tracks...

Have several Carrera 6 V battery motors for use in cars, non-digital.
Work great and very fast.

Yeah, I am intrigued, because even though it looks sorta like Artin, Fast lane, Etc.; on the other hand it doesn't really. Set is $38. so it ain't gonna break the bank, but on the other hand it's enough that if I get it and it's just the same ole thing and I wasted my money, I won't be happy! Cars look pretty cheap, but maybe worth a gamble!?

Did I ever said that I'm using Carrera Go wall warts?
There are cheap wall warts & cuts current for about 5 seconds (Surge protection?) when pulling to much amps , even with 2x Carrera Go wall warts in parallel they are not enough for Artin cars or any of 1/32 cars for too long (Yep! I also tried that for fun)

Do a little search about me on here or other slot cars forum & you'll find out how much power (voltage/amps) that I am using... ;)
I'll give you a little hint... a variable AC 23volts 5amps (AC2 system)
I even got lots of DC power supply's with all kind of voltages/amps & some have variable voltages or I make my own

I know all about electric voltages/amps & some basic in electronics , thank you!
