I can remember having a 4 lane Firecracker 500 set with custom picked old stock Aurora tracks with the top clips, and the orange controllers with the brakes in 1975. The following year in 1976, the G Plus was released, and we were really amazed at how much faster they were.

❤❤ Love that the Younglings are still interested in our hobby! I've got my Grand Kids hooked!

Oh and a BIG THANK YOU, for keeping your videos interesting and entertaining..

+afx slot car crazy thanks

Great vid and info. The g plus chassis give me a lot of grief haha. I know they have to be tweaked but they seem to be very intricate and temperamental at least on my track

Hello! I sent a request to join group on FB, looking forward to seeing all the cool stuff, thanks!

Thanks for sharing all of your knowledge! Do all Gplus cars still have the 3 way timing switches on the motors?

Even my 2 baby princess grand daughter's go crazy when I bring over the slots!

I have never seen that orange magnet Super G Plus or the chassis with the pull out back axle. The first ones I saw with the pull out back axle were the super magna traction.

I wonder if the super g+ had a larger 26 tooth drive gear. The g plus had a 20 tooth. Afx screechers had the 26 tooth in a g+ chassis. Wondered if afx used the 26s in the super g+ later on.

can you put the autoworld bodies on these chasis? thanks

AFX Slot Pin too long for Tyco Track. What is the proper procedure to shorten the pin so it doesn't bottom out on Tyco Track.???

Sorry I keep forgetting to tell you stuff... If you look at the G+ motors they are different from Super mags and Speed shifters. early Amrac and cars have the same armature.... Thats the best combo..Given stock parts... The old Speed Shifter with a G+ crown gear is Still the fastest HO set up pure stock... Good luck.

Who is the female voice in the background ? Please give her some kudos !

My AFX Mega G PLUS cars run WAAAAY too fast. They go from nothing to a million miles an hour and are hard to keep on the track.!!! The Mega G (non-plus cars) are much easier to control. What can I do to slow these PLUS cars down.???

Is that your controller that's squeaking like that? Are you constantly pumping your trigger?

Anyone that has strong traction magnets

foam tires are NOT things of the past!! Our club uses "Silisponge" tires in the top division. Silicone and Urethane ARE GREAT. Silisponge are king. Try it you might like it; likely learn to love it.

Grew up on tjets and magnatraction..Never really liked g+ when they came out..Yes they where much faster..But the full gripping of the track was not realisic,plus they wore out too fast and started running like shit..For true realistic racing,the magnatraction with rear foam tires was the best..You had to actually drive the car..

Hate to say but, to many sharp turns

I think that is a Ferrari not Renault?
