Above Just put some wood filler on sand down & one smooth track

Above Plan to show how far I have got with stuff to do. . .

Well that's how far I got pop back soon will upload more and show working pits !!!!

Wednesday night

Well I finally got them to work I used a couple of point motors from the model rail boys these cost me £4.00 each but well worth it.

I shall now get the point switch and fit them in so I will have working pits

Above the FLIPPER in place ready for a test

Below better put some tape on . . . .

Below how I fitted the point motor. got the idea of the picture mount from the www.slotforum.com/forums

White plastic to support the flipper

Above I tried it out its Black common and red to throw one way and green to throw the other way I will see how they perform as I think it may be POSSIBLE the flipper may slip back so might put an elastic band around it or a small magnet to hold in closed position

Above the point switch I will use to close and open the pit lane I will pick up two Thursday night as it late night opening at model shop next step is finish the paint and then lay the tape. . .

Thursday night

Well here's what you have all been waiting for the working pit lane

With the point switch . . . .

Close up . . . .

Saturday 24th March 2007

Wow wont be long now

Saturday 10:50pm 24th march 2007 ready for the tape. . . .

Sunday 1st April 2007

Well after a week of putting down tape I forget how fragile it is and went through three rolls of copper tape. . .

Any way like so many others out there I just could not resist a quick try out so here is the video well worth it that Scalextric Challenger was well worth the money I can tell you

Just goes to show that you cant race and do video at the same time

By the look of things should have made pit lane A little Bigger but the LED'S should be visible when racing. May put back into the garage section

As above That's what I was doing this Easter weekend and the start Gantry which is running off my P.C using Ultimate racer software ( free down load )

Laying Scatter and painting This is the only bit I Suck at( painting )

Any way time for a Pit Garage I have the Cardboard ones but. . . .

A bit Tall so. . .

Came up with this Idea

And If you want to make one its Quite simple and will be effective once panted and stickers all on it

Well Been quite busy to day 14th / 4 / 007 finished off the pits

Looks better in a close up so here it comes But first a thanks to Taxi Aka SLOTMAN for some garage backgrounds P.S Nice site a lot of hard work gone into that lay out I know Well done
