I'm already constructing a track for South Jersey just need to save up for power supply. Hoping to name it Atco Raceway if the name is not taken. The track should be done before the summer ends.

. . .Hoping to name it Atco Raceway . . . Nice! Will be nice to have one of the gems of east coast drag racing represented. Went there a few times as a youngster. Read it has been sold recently but will continue to be managed by the former owners for the next two years. Their race program should continue to be good for a while. Look forward to you getting your track up and running.

I am using 60ohm Parma's. They are just the standard version, but they are a good solid controller. I've been told that the lower ohm controllers do not run the tjets well. You might want to research that if that applies. Hope this helps. Looking forward to seeing and hearing about the progress of your build. Be sure and take some pics.

You're right Jeff, the Tjets are said to run best at 60 to 90ohm controller. Thanks

The power supply just came in today. It's the same as JJWALLACE's and found it on Amazon for $132.00 new. I also have the same timing system (Slot Dragon)and the track itself will also be AW track.I'm building it four lanes wide so I can make an empty lane between racers,because rubbing ain't Drag Racing.I plan on getting started after the Holiday as long as my cars are ready for the Rocky Mountain Nationals.
