I called the # for drag tracks awhile back and a guy answered and informed me he'd let his brother know I called...

(fyi-his brother is the owner of the sh*tty company). Wait.....what..... the number for communication is your brothers cell, WTF! 


  • I had a burned out timer display on my first. The company itself hardly did anything. Had to get Jeg's to send me a replacement!! — KandORacing

Hey Matt,

Sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your Drag Track...That's why I run the system that I do, simple Smitty Start gate and a 3DBot finish line.

If you can get your track dialed in, cool...but, if you have any reservations about it, then, just send that cars on to Stroller. My main concern is with having a fair race.

Another option would be if you could just use the finish line to judge the race and use some type of mechanical start gate. The times don't really matter, as long as you can determine the winner.

Thanks for your efforts, Matt! Keep us posted on how the track is doing!

Let's just say my #76 bug (with black roof now) got all it wanted and more from EasyBound bug. It took 11 races to decide that side of the semi final bracket. Good racing!

DT and I have rebuilt my track to accept the new MaxTraxx dual finish line it seems to work fine .

The finish line is not usable with Blu Trak so we laid orange track right on top of the Blu Trak.  It cradles the orange track like it was made for such a purpose.  Waiting for the VDubs to show up. BTW on Tuesday Spokane was hit with a rain and wind storm. The top speed of the wind was 72 mph only 3 mph less than a hurricane.  There is about a 1/4 million people living here. 200,000 were without electricity the first night.  It is very dark when the whole town goes black.  Well we had over 376 trees down across roads. We have our power back now and only about 50,000 homes still need power.....When the bugs get here tomorrow we will run the races.  May the best car win.  Did anyone notice that DT came in fourth. Not too bad for his first tournament.  Way to go Gabe...
