Computer prompted start

I'm researching starters and was curious if people also like having the capability of computer prompted starts?

Racing vehicles

I was surprised to see kids racing matchbox cars at an event?! I was curious about what different types of "racing vehicles" are currently out there (example: pinewood derby cars, matchbox cars, etc.)? Seems like the matchbox cars would definitely appeal to my 2 year-old!! :dance:

Re: ZEP DRY GRAPHITE???

All this talk about graphite reminds me of when I won my first pinewood derby...my Dad put so much graphite on my car, I had to wash my hands every time I handled the darn thing! :eager:

Re: Best Track Mods

That's impressive! I'm glad the guy didn't have to drive across the States in a U-Haul truck...I drove in one for just three hours once, and felt so rattled that I could barely walk straight when I got out! :eek:

Re: Best Track Mods

Wow! I didn't realize each Girl Scout race held in all those different cities across the states used the same two tracks?! Did they ship them or drive them to each venue? I just envisioned two guys driving a U-Haul truck across the United States :rofl:

Re: 2017 Ford Fast Track Races

That's a pretty cool looking set-up...does anyone know the track and timer they are using?

Electronic starters

Hey everyone! Looking at doing some pinewood drag racing, and wanted to know the best "push-button" starter out there...any suggestions?
