Still looking for magracers with reverse and controllers

Hi everyone,

I am still interested in finding new or used cars with reverse and controllers, preferably in the US (North America).

Anyone with something they might want to sell, please contact me with the info.

Thanks

Re: BRW 2 in progress.

Hi Kim K. Track looks great. I notice you have the racing line going through the turn starting at the outside, crossing over two straight lines to the inside, then crossing back over the lines going out of the turn back to the outside. It seems to me that's how it should be done. Good job. I was hav...

Re: 'Routing the Keld method' (Dremel saw)

Hi, I have questions for rex craemer first, I've seen the videos of your track and the cars seem to run nicely around it at very good speeds. I am curious about how it was built. What material is the track and was it routed for the wire? What size wire did you use and was it coiled or straight piece...

Re: My 2006 Chevrolet Montecarlo

Hi Ned, You said both the Monte Carlo and Mercedes were built using the same chassis. What gives the Mercedes the wider track, just wheels and tires, and width of rear axle? While on the wheel subject, I have yet to tear apart the slot cars I have, but the Slot it LMP cars that I have seem to have r...

Re: My 1967 Porsche 910 Spyder

Hi Keld,

Does the controller determine the frequency and then the car is matched to that to operate? In other words, the controller is a specific frequency, and not the car? Sorry I'm still trying to learn about how everything works.

Thanks

Re: My 1967 Porsche 910 Spyder

Ned, I absolutely love what you're doing using 1/32 scale bodies with your chassis to create these magracers. You seem to have quite a stable of cars now, and assuming you've run some of them and really put some track time on them, which way would you recommend to configure the front wheels as far a...

Re: Alternative battery?

Thanks guys,

When I get to the point of experimenting myself with some cars, I may still try a few things with seeing how that battery might work. I just really like the shape of it, box vs. cylinder.

Thanks for the replies.

Alternative battery?

Hello everyone, I'm sure someone must have already explored this option, but I just popped open my digital camera to recharge the battery and noticed that it is a 3.7v 720mAh lithium ion battery that has a nice size that would fit into almost any 1/32 body, it measures 1.25" wide, 1.55" lo...
