Hey Lewis,
Not sure who is making decals...... have had ideas in the past but never got any answers.
Are you looking for something you don't think will be found on existing decal sheets ?
........ Peter

Hey Lewis, Possible option (if decals can't be had), is to use tape. The colors needed would consist of white paint & a fine black marker or brush with black paint. Tamiya masking tape is thin & yellow. The black triagle should be easy to do just color background & leave yellow needed. I have painted tape white to do figures & other things........ how good can you print......really really small :-)........ lol. Sorry, thinking out loud......... Print is hard , is intended decal small enough that it could be faked to look right ? ........... Peter |

Hey Lewis,
Started using straight pins not long ago....... first it was for looks , thought better than brass or steel wire. But straight pins will bend & straighten. So now I set them up on cars with a piece of paper under wheels on bars. Right to the track basically......... tires don't spin , bars flex. Could be wrong , but I think energy is put into forward motion faster because tail end of bars are closer to track.
.......... Peter

I know those little guys are a pain in the butt lol. I made them like a real set of over under design with supports in the middle. But there a dime a dozen and the ones with the plastic heads work well they don't spin either but they look like lil black wheels on there and there is no metal rubbing the track to short or rub paint off so its kind of a win win. If you want you can text me and I will send you a pic of them for son reason I cant post them but I could post the body pics I dunno but my cell is 270-774-2079
