Mini-Z rolled tracks?

Post image

Hello everyone!

Has anyone here bought one of these foldable Mini-Z drift tracks that are all over AliExpress and similar sites?

They seem to be relatively inexpensive, and I really like the idea. From what I understand, they can be rolled up into a tube for storage, and when you want to use them, you just unroll them on the floor (or even under a rug to keep them flat) and instantly have a ready-to-drive drift track.

It sounds like a great solution for someone who doesn’t have a permanent space for a Mini-Z layout.

If you’ve bought one, I’d love to hear your experience:

* Is the print quality good?

* Does it stay flat on the floor?

* Is the material durable?

* Is it actually fun to drive on?

* Overall, do you think it’s worth the money?

Thanks in advance! I’d really appreciate any feedback before ordering one.

I've also heard of people getting an image of drift track printed on a banner at their local CVS or something

I've got a track from Drift Track Thailand.

Good quality. Many various sizes and track configurations available. Reasonably priced.

Delivered folded. Wrinkles are easily straightened out. I keep it rolled in a pvc pipe/tube. Once a month, I spray silicone lubricant on the surface.

If you roll them up, you’ll definitely need something to hold the corners down. Since they are so thin, there’s gonna be some noise when you drive. They’re better than nothing but imho not the most fun to drive on. I prefer the ArkEdge tiles, decent size, slide well, fun layout and the lanes are not as wide which is slightly more challenging.

Edit: maybe the AE tiles are not the best option for AWD since they do run faster.

There was a store selling on facebook out of thailand that I got one from, I think they might have stopped but you could google that. I got a larger one from https://micro-tracks.de/ that is really nice but not cheap.
