I bought a bunch of track off of ebay and when I got it, it turned out to be the old styled track and not the newer snap together track. I found adapter track
at slot car world but they were out of stock so then I tried this place slot car circuit but they wanted way to much for shipping. And I were wandering if you
guys know of any other places that would have the adapter track.

See Philippe Marchand's website listed above for how to combine old and new Artin track.

Hey dcwms1 - I just browsed Philippe's site and didn't find anything about home made adapters - so here ya go
Get your sharpest razor knife and cut away - I just made this one tonight - should take about a minute or so 
The gaps in the track (where the locking tabs should be) can be filled in with hot glue or just covered over with some black tape if it's not gonna be permanent - hope this helps.

I really dont think an old retired army guy could get embareassed. I know you have been to NTC so don't tell us you get embareassed.
GOTTA SLOW DOWN TO GO FAST!

I think I mention somewhere that snapping the tabs off of the new style track makes it match the old style, but I am not sure where ....
And it if helped making CJ feel embarrassed ..... Then I will make sure to remove any mentions of that whatsoever ..... LOL |
