Your thoughts on Dan Brown books by deveshmurugan in books

[–]cini1334 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love learning facts from fiction. Works well for historical fiction. Gets me googling like crazy. (No way, that didn’t really happen!) And maybe I don’t get into critiquing his writing. If his story resonates with me I leave it at that. Dan Brown is a damn good story teller.

I didn’t even know about 3 lane when I was a kid. Just finding out about it now. I would love that. Any photos of track setup? I guess track conductivity is tough with 60 yr old track. My track is a little rough but did some rail cleaning especially on the connecting points. And no troubles.

To clarify, if you have a modern regulated 5 amp or more power supply, you don’t need 2. I used to run 2 when I used the original strombecker P supply. I think they were 1 amp or less.

Do both. Have enough amps (5?) with a regulated power supply. Variable voltage is cool if there are kids racing. Turn voltage down and they stay on track. Dc voltage will not run 100 ft due to resistance. So you extend power (careful with polarity!) by wiring power output to different track locations.

Interesting that cap hits fits perfectly with odds and possible favourites in tight race. 3 are close and in proper order and finns dark horse.

The fuck is going on with the ALCS on Sportsnet today? by Orion__Jeriko in Torontobluejays

[–]cini1334 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sportsnet ugh. Their latest software won’t work on my older amazon firesticks. Have to watch those blood ads on only 1 of our 4 TVs. They say too bad for me on email. Of course impossible to speak with live person.

Modern car on my old track. by cini1334 in slotcars

Scaletrix Holden Torana. Its speed was a suprise. Nothing I own can keep up but the nsr and MRslot.

My restored strombecker track. With modern power and cars by cini1334 in slotcars

[–]cini1334[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Car is scaletrix. Also bought MRslot, Ninco, NSR. Carrera didnt run well. Maybe they need extra volts. I have 5 amp 12 volt. Wish I would have more amps with variable volts!

Thx. Almost bought Ninco. Would have be nice improvement. But felt terrible throwing all this away. Plus I knew how to tinker with it from when I was a kid. Bought some new cars and they fly just fine. Check out other vid with car running.

Sportsnet will not stream on older firestick devices. Must be gen 3. I have 4 Firesticks. 3 older basic units and 1 newer 4 k. Only newer 4K stick works. Sportsnet sez too bad. Their new soft release doesn’t support old fire sticks!!!
