Posted: Tue May 05, 2015 7:56 amHave i entered a car in this race without written permission from the car owner? I hope that is not the case!
Maybe it was an evil plan to abscond that beautiful Ferrari! I have run that car now, and i know how it drives.
Even more incentive!

Posted: Tue May 05, 2015 5:55 pmWow. I must have missed something somewhere. I thought this was going to be 3-4 tracks, done by September. Goodness........8 months and 12 tracks!
How awesome is that? Very cool indeed. And I thought this was an easy proxy......dunno if my cars will last that long :lol:

Posted: Tue May 05, 2015 7:56 pmAny details of voltages, directions, surfaces, etc?
Re: ROAR fun run - the tracks
Posted: Wed May 06, 2015 4:00 amBill, I don't have that level of detail on the tracks, but assume that each race will be run at the voltage that works best for that particular track. I would say that the range will probably be 10-12V. Lower voltages if the motors were more powerful, but with the <15k motors, they'll take a little more to propel them along.
Slotting Since 1963 sent me a reply to your question. He runs Rhine River as follows: Wood, copper tape, flat urethane, clockwise and 12.5 volts.
The River Run is (or will be...): Wood, tinned copper braid, flat latex, clockwise and 10 volts.
If anyone else would like to post the specifics of your track, then please feel free to do so. Thanks.

Thanks. Any little bit of information can help, especially since we don't get to see them perform on the various tracks. A pre-thanks to all the hosts!

Posted: Thu May 14, 2015 9:52 amHi Allan, perhaps just me but I can't see the pics of Richards Rhino and 1953 tracks, just image boxes.
Does everyone else see them ?
