gtrlc350 Posted February 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Now that's a pretty impressive way to lurk! Primer on timing systems is here as a place to start. Embs Haha thanks, I was reading that post the other day, makes it sound easy, but?????? I did buy some z1951 sensors yesterday and there is still about 9 there so i can get some if any one likes. i also bought a plug and some wire, but my question is how do i wire up the pit sensors, are they wired in series to the start line for the same lane or do they go to a different pin on the plug? if so do they count laps as they are passed or does every one lose one lap?

Perro Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Jay that is a nice looking track you have built there. Maybe you you like a race night some time. Easy going informal social driving and a chance to show off your latest cars. We have 6 tracks across Brisbane with one in Buderim and one being built in Caloundra. Think it's something you want to try? Give me a yell. Perro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bly10 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Nice track, see ur racing in petrie, we are just down in warner if you are ever up for some motoring. Our track is only a scaley sport track but still fun. Looks like your routed track would be lots of fun and a joy to race on cheers mark..

dangermouse Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Fun looking track, a few challenging sections, and another Queenslander - good to see more of us on the forum to keep the Mexicans in check. Did your track replace a pool table? cheers DM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
