1/4 mile, or what?
 

Ok, I like to drag race people, and I was wondering how long my track should be if I were to make a 1/4 mile track for my R/C car!

There are 5,280 feet in a mile.
divided by four is 1320.
so to figure it out, divide 1320 by the scale of your rc car.
1/10 scale=132 ft.
1/43 scale=30.69 ft etc...

Ok, and a microsizer is.....? What scale is it?

1/43

No, I don't think so, because these are 1/43 scale.... http://tinyrc.com/shop/products.php?pid=6

actually yea.. i was fooling around with one of my 1:43 scale models before i posted that, so i got confused. they're 1:64

but if you read the rules for the Mini R/C drags, they use a 10 foot (i think?) drag. so if you just want to use that size.

Ok, thanx!

here's the article.

and they have two track sizes.. 12' and 20'

Hmm...for some reason, it doesn't work. This happens with ALL the .pdf files I view on the internet, not sure why...

download it to your comptuer and then open it with acrobat.

Tried that, it wouldn't dload! :( Well, I shouldn't say that, it DID dload, but it had no filename (ex, .jpg) I will try it again though, probably in a couple of days when I am ungrounded off the comp.. :( (my dad is sleeping right behind me, and I am SUPPOSED to be doing some homework, but meh :D)
