Derby Talk

My 'old' laptop does not have a serial port so it is a good thing I bought the Microwizard K3 Grand Prix Kit that came with one!

I don't see that file listed in my data file?

I have one labeled for AWANA GP racing.

I have some other questions but I will start my own thread.

http://www.mcmaster.com/ has them.

Well I guess I looked almost everywhere!

In my area we very seldom ever see snow much less any accumulation but we had it today. 8) I am 40 years old and can count on 1 hand how many times this has happened here. :) I have pics of it but I ...

Randy,
That is good advice.

Thanks,
Lynn

Well the track has arrived! :mrgreen: The instructions that was sent with it (which are a little different than what is on the website) seems to be lacking. :? Either I am missing a binding plate (2") or one of the big plates goes somewhere that one of the binding plates are supposed to go? The...

Randy,
Thanks for the advice on it and I will add it to the dimensions.

A trip to Lowes is in order.

PineNut,
I agree about the tools!

I have a 40' Freedom in the UPS pipeline as we speak!

I need to get the storage box built ASAP!
