Simmer down now, just getting started with the prelim work to see if I can do it. I took a lane change section to the table saw to whittle it down to size, cut a recess, routed the slots, painted and taped, soldered jumpers and connected the black box. Voila, it worked!!
Track will probably be 16X6, have a bridge, five or more lane changes, maybe a pit lane. I will use the Carrera control unit and B. Yinglings software.
Working track name, Thunder Road maybe Copperhead Road. Both songs mention Knoxville.
