Too cool. But there’s a Godzilla sized thing in frame right at 3:03.

Sweet track. Are all the cars you have Radiator Springs themed?

How did you get the 'in car' camera shots?
What are you using to film it?

Inquiring minds want to know. My son recently got the twins a slot car track.

I myself have recently made a camera car for my trains.

You have lots of cool toys Wayne. LOTS of cool toys. I guess playing with the slot cars is a lot easier than getting a 962 fired up and on a track.

What set did you start with, Carrera by chance? I have two 1/43 scale Carrera sets and a 1/32 scale Eldon set.
Very cool!!!

Fairly simple with the newer cameras. I just used an Insta360 and slowly dragged it across the track as smooth as I could. Then I cleaned up and reframed the 360 viewpoints in the Insta360 software and exported it as a "single frame" clip that I then imported into Davinci.

With the 360 camera, you can just film a ton of BS and clean it all up later on!

Well that it permasmile material.

I’ll re-ask Hobie Marty’s question, what set did you start with? Was any of the track itself custom?
