This is super cool!! I've had some tracks that allow driver interaction (individual starts & reaction times) and they really add a little something extra to the racing experience. A buddy of mine is currently building a scale quarter mile track that requires each driver to shift gears on their runs. At the shift points if you shift early your car slows, shift late (over rev) you could blow the engine. He's designed 3D printed shifters that have a realistic feel. After the shift points you can hit a "nitrous" button for an extra kick if needed. Combine his setup with yours and the only thing missing is the smell of rubber lol.

Good job, love to see more. 

Sal, I gotta say.  What you've done is really cool!  I love the innovation.


  • Thank you. My son and I have enjoyed your videos. You put on a good show and the scenery on your track was inspiration for mine. How you engineered those drift turns I dunno but it’s a thrill to watch! — Sals_Speed_Shop
  • Go to my channel playlist and look for the Build Videos. I believe its build #3 where I teach how to make a drift turn. The real key is entry speed, which I try to control, but it is the reason why some drift well and others do not. — GravityThrottleRacing

What a great build. I absolutely love the gas pedal start gate!
