I dont want to sound really dumb here (but i probably will!!)

i thought a potentiometer had 3 connections? do you just wire it in series the same as a variable resistor?
Dynamic Braking Question
To the scientist...an all
When the slot car does dynamic breaking in what direction does the power attempt to travel? Does the power go the same direction as the current which came from the power supply OR does the power attempt to go the reverse direction? I would guess the reverse direction since there are brake light system which only light based upon the direction power travels through a diode?

Oh ok.
Nuro, i dont suppose you know where i can get a wiring diagram to make a box with variable resistance control from on the net?

Now im just trying to figure out how the variable ohms for the controller works in the black box! but i guess that may take longer to explain!
anyway sorry maltese for taking over this thread a bit!
