Re: Auto-Charged Super Capacitor Technology
I have been thinking along these lines for many years now, but I was not waving it around, because I thought @ some point I might be able to exploit the idea. As I have come to find out in the years following my initial idea to do this; it had already been done before!! Now, why it never took off an...

Battery options
Wes, this post is a response to some posts over on SCi about mag racing in general, Pro's and COn's and different general concerns.

Re: buildings, scenery

Re: paint with metal powder
Hmm, Not sure what you might accomplish by using magnetic paint with these cars? If you are using it for the guide you will need to confine it to such a small area to be effective othe wise the cars will "wander" and probably go off track very easy!? If on the other hand you are using it t...

Runnig outdoors?
The topic came up on SCI about outdoors tracks and I have been thinking about the possibility of a Mag steer track outside, possibly even on the concrete in the garage or on a patio or something like that!? Anybody tried that yet??
