Re: NSW Stata Titles

Just trying to emphasise that we have A states and B states, this was an A state title.
Or it may have been a typo

Re: Bearing and magnet instal slugs

Not sure if this helps, but here is my method. If magents are prebonded I just use Les's parrallels. If I have unbonded segments that are repelling each other - say I have just dropped the bottom segment. I use a slug, cover it with grease amd then I use the jaws of a small shifter to clamp magent i...

Re: 72 gram g12 in al chassis?

Ace products have a comercially available alloy chassis, with front weights to get the car to 72G.

The U.S rules never specified materials.

With that said, no one in the U.S ever had any success with the alloy box 12 chassis.

Not sure what our rules say.

The place folded a few months after the race and Geoff bougt the track. It was assembled when they were above Mick Simmons. I remember ...

Re: New DiFalco Genesis Controllers

On the difalco, there is a small electronic fuse, its purpose if for false hook up. The fuse is in the brake circuit. I found this to be cause of inconsistant brakes. Most people in the U.S replace this fuse with an auto blade device. I have done the same with mine. Blowing difalco transistors appea...

Re: New DiFalco Genesis Controllers

Re: NSW STATE TITLES RESULTS 4 & 5 DEC 2010???

Geoff came second in the Grp 7 race, so he was there.

I was only there for Grp 7 so cant give much help for the other classes.
