For those who add weight to their cars, does it help quiet them at all? I have some light weight passenger cars that sound like slot cars as they go around the track. I am hoping weight might help this.

It does quiet them down. It quiets some cars more than other depending on configuration and original weight. Place the weight as low and as close to the trucks as possible. 1/4 ounce and 1/2 ounce stick-on weights are the best to use. You can get them on eBay -- most are non-lead now but you can still get lead weights which are a bit smaller.
