did you make the side of the track out of these bendable rulers for sketching?

Is that a lap timer/counter?
 
I have been considering making one for my ZZ track out of the laser point and photo cells, using different height flags on the cars antennas to trip the laser beams. I have seen this setup for the Mini-Z cars.

Curious what your timer/counter does and how it works. Work only for one car?

Must explain!!

Hey, nice tracks both of you! :cool:

Could you describe them in detail?
Size, materials, construction, etc...

Thanks!

Hi,

The "latency" track look more cool then mine,but:
- It is my first track
- I have invested little money and just 3 hours on building (manly because I changed my mind about the track shape 3 times !)
- It is very light (no more then 100g)

How it is done:

The black base is what it is normaly used for be putted between the raw flor and the carpet, I found it on "House Building Shop" (BauMax) : 3$ for 125x80x0.5 cm. The black base is a sort of "expanded rubber", 0.5 cm thick, very very weak, but for light cars like the bit, it is not a problem.

The blue lines come out of a "multy purpose" carpet, it is made out of stronger "expanded rubber", that I have easly cutted with a knife. This carpet 100x60x3 cm was little bit more expensive (15$) but can provide me enough lines for 4 or more tracks !

The lines are not glued on the base, since in case I change my mind I can redesign it !
The lines are just connected with small nails with a wide flat cup. For be sure to don't lose nails around the flat, I just use a easy removable scotch tape on the rear side, this fix better the nails and also help on not scratch the flor.

Cost for the small track : 8$ plus 2 hours !

I'm going to build up a bigger track, using to bases (160x125cm). Plus drugster track (250x40cm).

My record is now lowered to 2.8sec with Bit Booster, the only way to drive a Digi-Q on the track is to set the maximum speed at 2/8 using the Special controller.
