Light Tree Sign

Post by gpraceman »

I doubt you could use this for starting each heat, but it sure would be a cool race decoration. It would also look cool in my workshop. Maybe if I'm good Santa will bring me one. :pray: Though, I don't think Santa has the budget. :cry:

Its a bit overkill for Pinewood Derby, but read the next thread down and you will see that I have something close in mind that will work with the Grand Prix software. My initial version is intended to light LED's only. But, the circuit could be easily adapted to turn on full size colored flood lights like you have in the image.
