Important notes on your BestTrack
Safety Precautions: If needed, smooth edges with emery cloth or a file.
electrical device that uses household current
down transformer to bring the voltage to a safe level. Because this is a metal track,
precautions must be used to prevent bare wires from coming in contact with the metal
components of the track which could cause shorting or electrocution. Use only low voltage
timers, etc. on this track to assure the safety of all users of the track. Please keep all plastic
guards, end caps, etc. in place to protect edges. Do not stand or climb or allow others to stand or climb
on the track or any part of the stand.
It is normal for one or both sidewalls of the track lane with the curve formed in it to be rolled
inward towards the center of the lane. This is due to the manufacturing process and will not affect the
function of the track. This is normal and will not affect the speed of the cars or the fairness of the race in
any way.

Unpack and layout lanes: We suggest you lay out all of the lanes in line before proceeding. Please
note the Bumps and Indentations shown in the diagram below. These need to all go the same
direction, with all of the bumps on the sides of the lanes facing one side of the track and all of the
indentations facing the other side of the track. (See picture below).
LIFT/LEVEL or LEVEL KIT! If you have purchased one of these kits, you will want to install the
mounting bolts as you assemble your track to save time later. Please read the kit instructions before
assembling your track.
Note that the sides of each lane are designed to mate up with the one beside it and interlock.
(See diagram below) Make sure the lanes are all lined up in the same direction, as stated above.
Use the included file in case you need to remove a burr or to round off a corner. We do not recommend
sanding the joints.
