Monte- Is the SCX system similiar to the Scalextric system? I tried the Scalextric Digital out once and you had a button on the controller that you pressed to change lanes. I was running by myself so I didn't get to experience two cars on the same lane.

That would be the problem then, as I am using Internet Exploder. It also does not work with Qwest/MSN browser either FYI

Re: NASTE 2009 Race Schedule (8 replies, posted in NASTE)
Bill/Monte- I was excited because my wife was working the 5:00am to 2:00pm shift the day of the race and thought maybe I could make it down on the assumption the race was at the normal evening slot. After reading this post I found out the race is at noon instead. It would be nice if the calender was updated with times and locations for all the races that are known. It goes without saying we will not be able to make it.
Thanks for listenin

There are lots of vintage chassis/cars on ebay, and if you watch closely you can get some pretty good deals

Re: 1/24 IROC for NASTE races (17 replies, posted in Cars)
I voted econo, but the EJ's kits would be ok by me, or something comparable. On the forum in the link for the Tifosi class, there is a post about the D3 chassis. These look interesting to me, but probably not too different from what I know of the current econo class, which is very little. The Tifosi class looks like it would be fun, but I am unsure of the format to be used, can anyone shed some light?
Thanks for listenin

That seems to be the general concensus. They are more like motorized displays. I wish I had the scratch to purchase one.

Did you know that Revell-Monogram is also coming out with versions of this car (Lola T-70) in the near future? Should be more affordable and raceable, I hope.

Re: Chassis Building Classes (8 replies, posted in Cars)
Bill- Aj and I would like to try and attend but as always finding time in the schedule is tough. My wife's work schedule is always in flux . Due to the broken arm it has been a little easier to deal with but I don't know when she wiill be back to evening shifts. Basically, if/when the class gets scheduled, I will have to try and work things out.

Have you noticed that your Gurney Weslake-Ford has the distributor in the rear like a Chevy? I saw some posts where people were going to try and make corrections. I'm sure most people these days would never notice.

Re: Sloter Lola T70 (13 replies, posted in Cars)
Bill- which one did you get? Gurney or McCluskey? They look really beautiful, but I've read they have wimpy motors. It seems most everyone is turning them into shelf queens, so you are not alone. I finally ran my Scalextric Eagle, I just had to see how it ran. It came away unscathed and I intend to replace the braids so it will still look brand new.

If I'm skulling this they just really need to be rotated 90 degrees to fit the commutator in a more proper manner. I guess for the price, as long as they run.......

Bill- Do the brushes have a concave area where you would expect them to make contact? If they do can/should this be corrected? Would the motor run better?
