On chips, we have simply too many to create a video-log. As mentioned earlier in this thread, some were dead-on-arrival, some had no brakes, some had a range with the of about 30cm, some when hooked up to a light kit had only rear lights but not front lights (light kit and LEDs worked perfectly when tested with another chip) and so much more.

Impressive. And I thought my lust & collection of Carrera buildings were bad. Better start fillin up those grandstands mate. What do u reckon? A grand for some plastic bums on seats should do the trick?

 

Where abouts in Sydney are you?

Hi,

@Lavenaar, you can make routed tracks digital, maybe your next project?

 

@Slotbaker...40m total, but 8 m is the pit lane

 

@Slotmania....yes about a grand, laugh out loud

 

@ Gazza...thanks mate

 

@Jonespeed...More bucks than I care to remember, although I did keep receipts.

 

@Mr Magoo about 5 months of Sundays plus a few weeknights here and there.

2nd attempt, first attempt when I was a kid 25 years ago and had boxes of it given to me.

 

Thanks guys, I enjoy construction as mush as racing itself.

Hi Guys,

Holding a test drive nite/arvo soon, just PM me or leave a post if your keen, got spare ssd audis and boxters for anyone who hasnt got a digital car.

Im at Kellyville on 5 acres. Fri/sat nites or Sun arvos are cool with me, although a Thursday night could be the go.

Considering a 20 m drag strip too.

Have Fun

Must be great to race on, and i see you even have a sound system in the background, 15" PA speaker? really crank up the racing musik!

 

Top work, whats your average lap time?

 

I'm also near Sydney, so if you have a shindig, i'd be happy to come along.

An unmodified car is like a blank sheet of paper, aching to be drawn on.
