That track looks awesome! How's the power? Do you use powertaps at all or is the Ninco track just that good?

Rakete,
Power is from 6 off regulated supplies 6V-18V at @4A each giving one supply per lane. The track has an extensive network of power taps from the central controller due to the size and number of track pieces. Fortunately the track is a permanent setup in the clubhouse, so no issues of having to break down the sections. cheers John -------------------- |

Nice video John
 The only thing missing is you knocking off anyone racing with you  Although I do feel that you crown might be slipping as the Thunder from Down under ( Lee  that is )is getting pretty good at knerfing now Michael

Only John could think of filming that way.
Do you reckon you could do it again with track lights only? -------------------- Negative criticism usually comes from those who attempt nothing more in life than "sitting on the fence".

Graeme
I can bring the truck back again Monday, and we can try with the track lights on, and how about mounting the camera backwards and a trio of Le Mans cars with lights following, might work or we may get a black cat in the coal cellar. Mike, Bring your inline GT car Monday and i will video it going round shedding wings, pinion teeth & tyres.................. Cheers John -------------------- |

Looking forward to more video in different situations. Matt.
