s3lkies asked: Good day,
Im wondering (I have a scalextric car) how can I make it when it gets the correct charge of energy (12 volts isnt it ?) it will make the car go - but I would like to make it go automatically as in when it “hits” the electricity it will startup and keep going until I remove the energy source.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
S3lkies

Superscottee asked:
In the 1970s Hot Wheels had a line of cars with crazy zany styles and oversized monsterlike drivers. What was this line called? They were like the Ed Roth Rat Fink cartoons. I collected them as a child but can’t remember what they were called.

We are attaching the two cars together by string and then they pull against each other. The winner is the car that pulls the other car over the line. (tug of war). Please give me some ideas. Thanks.

clock asked:
We are undertaking a project. We have a toy car with a motor and a remote control. (from Woolworths) We are converting it into a small girl who will walk along the sea front. We have some sticks and wire and a stuffed head which will turn using another motor. Our car/girl wheels are dragging on the ground and the chassi doesn’t seem to fit with the wheels. Does anyone have an hints for making car-girls? I know you all do it all the time.

Unknown asked: Anyone know how those pull back toy cars work? Those cars that you pull back and when u release it it goes. Ihave one and i cant open it to see how it works.
And there are also some that starts moving slow after you pull back and release and soon enough, it moves faster. Anyone knows how those work too?
Thanks.

michael.hendricks asked:
I have a 8 year old son. I use to be into radio control cars, the kind that you would get from a Hobby Shop. But I want to buy something for my son that would be fast but not hobby shop expensive. How do the ratings work with mhz and battery voltage as far as speed?
Doesn’t voltage on the battery effect that as well?
