Freedom Aluminum Tracks

Our Freedom aluminum tracks were designed by a team of MIT engineers based on Cub Scout Leader "How-To Book" specifications to be durable, easy to assemble and easy to store.
We now manufacture all of our tracks with the new Quick Pack Track Design that offers faster, easier setup and tear down of your Freedom aluminum track.

The Freedom Tracks come with an unconditional guarantee: No matter how old your track is, if you feel you haven't gotten your moneys worth, we will do what it takes to make it right!

We also have technical support 24 hours a day - 7 days a week

Design
Our track is assembled straight and flat, then two 10 lb. weights are added to create the bow. Because the lanes flex as a unit, they are not susceptible to lane-to-lane variations as in some pre-bent tracks. This design also makes storage easier because it can be packed flat in a case only 6 inches tall! (For example= 96” long, 15” wide, 6” tall). More

Durability
All of our tracks are extruded on our own custom designed die from 6061-T6511 aluminum.We only sell anodized aluminum tracks. This material is resistant to corrosion and has a high surface hardness to insure against the denting and nicking prevalent in other aluminum tracks. More

Cross-section of track.

We thought we would demonstrate the toughness of our track by driving over it with a front end loader. No other track on the market can survive this test.

We only carry Anodized Tracks to protect the aluminum surface of your track. Our experience has been that even after ten years the anodized track looks like new.

We believe in the anodizing process so much that if you get a scratch on the surface of your anodized track, ship it to us and Derbywizard will replace it for only the price of shipping. For information on the anodizing process click here.

Additional Timer Options:
- If viewing the race results from the front and the back of the timer is an option you would like, our Double Vision Option is available for the K2 and K3 models.

- For your Derbywizard Timer that has the computer serial interface option, we have the Remote Time Display that shows lanes times and place of finish anywhere you set it (It comes with a 50' cable). No computer is required although you may use one with it.

- Since very accurate race starts are important, we carry a Laser Start Gate that projects a laser beam across the starting line. When the cars are released, they interrup the beam and the timer begins counting. Very high tech!

We sell the GPRM - GrandPrix Race Manager Pro Software that allows you to run races based on fastest or average time, plus much more. There are no refunds on software purchases.

Derby Day! software package is also compatible with our timers. It is free and available directly from their website.
