Hello, I'm Marcus Firegone, host of Friday Night Street Racing on our YouTube Channel @MarcusFiregone.  We race 1/64 diecast cars, like Hot Wheels and Matchbox, down tracks.  Tracks include traditional Hot Wheels tracks as well as Crash Racers wide track and custom 3D printed corners, start gate, and timer system.  We only promote street racing if it is done at the 1/64 scale.

​

In Diecast Racing the cars are powered by Gravity, were weight is like Horse Power and Friction is like Arrow Dynamics which inversely affects the speed and stability of the car as it plunges down the track.  As expected, these cars are driverless.  Each run has a multitude of factors that determine its path and ultimately its fate.  Every run is unique and somewhat random.  Master the build in order to master the track.

​

Videos of the cars are typically slowed down for your viewing pleasure, otherwise it would be difficult to see the cars in flight.  Builders use Dry Lube, swap tires, use low friction axles, and sand the wheels to reduce friction and increase the weight of the car by adding weights (such as curtain weights or tungsten putty).

​

Catch us live and interactive some Friday Nights at 10:00 PM EST on our YouTube Channel, and catch up on the 100's of videos that already posted there.

Nestled in the hills and valleys near Orillia, Ontario, where downhill skiing prevails, we called our track Snow Valley East, home of the Snow Valley Racers.

I used to have my Son helping me out, Snake, with his Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34) but now I'm joined by Sweet JP.  You may know Sweet JP (aka Joshua Punkhead) from Redline (Movie).  He arrived from Planet Dorothy and it hasn't been the same since.  We somehow opened a portal, or more like a series of portals.  Primarily we are now 30 years into the future.  This occurred in 2026, so we started out in 2056.  Seven years after the collapse and one year before the outlaw of all motor vehicles.  So as you can imagine, much has changed and I don't want to spoil it for you, but the automotive industry has had it's challenges.  From the ban of older cars, destruction of junk yards, forced march into the EV era along with the ban on being able to fix your own car.

​

Now, used as an EV dump site with melting toxic batteries, we have been given the unfortunate name of Death Valley.

​

On the brighter side, for a period of time there were new cars built that you will have not seen before and we look forward to introducing you to them.
