Hi Woodcote, Thanks so much for those numbers and recommendations! On some of the 007 tracks some of my cars slow down or stop, spinning their wheels, which makes me think the downforce is too great and I need to raise the car a bit. I'll let you know how it turns out! Cheers!

Hi Woodcote, Just saw a Youtube video regarding upgrading tires for Micro Scalextric ( ) - do you happen to have the rim dimensions if I happen to want to shop around for silicone replacements (example: inside diameter, outside diameter, width) - is there a website that you know of that may compile all that information for multiple manufacturers (eg., Aurora, AFX, Tyco) as I do have a few non-MS cars? Just wondering.

These are great posts! I just got into HO/Micro Scalextric recently and find these a great resource. I've just purchased 2 sets (HyperCars and 007) and plan on building a large racetrack (with spirals, banks, loop-the-loops, etc.) I've heard that long tracks require power taps to make up for power loss at the end of each track section, but can I use the 2 powerbases I have on the same track? Besides not having controllers connected to the same lane (as per your quote below) is there any other modification required in order to have these 2 powerbases work together?
