Re: Paint stripping (6 replies, posted in Cars)
I bought it at Rite-Aid for $2.49. I just saw it at WalMart for $1.79. You just have to look for the 91% on the label instead of 70%. It took a while but it worked. After the paint got soft I used some 0000 steel wool to facilitate removal.

In your case-probably coffee. 91% instead of the normal 70% at most stores.

FYI- I used 91% Rubbing alcohol and it worked very well.

Re: What do you have? (38 replies, posted in Digital Racing)
I personally do not. Try getting a hold of someone at the PSSRA or get in contact with Tony at the FantasyWorld Hobbies warehouse. They have an analog track set up there and he has a good pulse on what's happening in the area. You just have to resize anything you want to use as an avatar and save it some where you can find it.

Re: What do you have? (38 replies, posted in Digital Racing)
Welcome aboard- You have found the Naste Forum. If you go to the Naste Home page and click on links there is a link to the PSSRA homepage. At this time there is only one SCX digital track in our little group up and running. We had the first competition last Saturday and it was a blast. Where are you located?

Thanks Monte & Victoria for another fun filled evening of racing and great grub. Digital racing is for the bull dozer operator in all of us, if you can't beat em, ram em.

Re: Crossovers (3 replies, posted in Track)
They can be fun, but be advised they will cause crashes that can damage cars. If you are racing competitively I would advise against them. Messing around with some friends would be okay. Just my two cents

Re: Cascade Road Course (12 replies, posted in Track)
Mike- You have to be able to have access to a website that you can host photo's. I use Photobucket but there are others or you may have your own. You set up an account and upload photo's to there from your computer. Once you have them uploaded and saved there four choices that show up under your photo's. Click on the one that says direct link, you may have to right click and copy but I think it copies automatically. When you have this done then start a post here. Add whatever text you want and then use the following formatting:
Type just like this [img]paste the direct link from Photobucket[/img] or [img]http:/www.mysite.com/myfolder/myfile.jpg[/img] if that makes more sense. Basically, just take the url for the image and surround it with the tags and the pictures magically appear.

Re: Power supplies (7 replies, posted in Track)
With Scalextric Sport the track with the power/controller hook ups is set up so you can run two wall warts (power supplies) it helps eliminate power drop off when one guy gets on the power first. It is not a variable set up though. A good variable power supply is not cheap at least the ones I have looked at. You don't mention how many amps the one you are looking at is. I would say you need at least 5 amps, Monte or Bill or ? can correct me on this.
