I'll give it another go when I build up the courage. I will have a look at what you did with the Anglia...

Hi All
Has anyone got a Cox TTX 250 and a Mabuchi FT36D motor they would like to sell ?
PM me any time.
Regards Greg

Could we please have some pics of chassis and construction of these cars. I'm sure there will be some good iron work under there.

Thanks for the explanation, i understand what your saying about the amperage now.The jaycar unit runs 15 amps continuous so there is plenty to use for a 2 lane track of any kind. Thanks for all the answers to my questions youve been a big help.

Thanks for your help fella's . I'm on the sunshine coast QLD and the postage would kill interstate purchase , i'll just go to jaycars on the coast and have a look.
Next Question What is the advantage of having adjustable amps

Thanks i'll give one a try
