okay I will try to fix that a little later today.

Mopar I'll see if I can post a file so you can dowload them yourself. Because I don't have any extra of the printing material.

I was also thinking about redoing the back of the tire aswell. I just need someone to submit a couple of decent pictures so I can do that. (preferably one with the tire open and one with it closed).

Keith would you mind taking pictures of the center for me? Sorry I'd just like to try to redo as many of the stickers as possible.

[mxfaiman]

okay here are the stickers.

The first one is my customized one. The second one is the original that I started out with. And the third is my remake of the original one.

I hope you don't have any issues with these files. Let me know if you do though.

[mxfaiman]

Also if you were able to download the PhotoShop ones I just want to let you know that they aren't sized correctly. Neither are the JPEG ones.

Good Looking Touch-ups! I wired up my new power supply, (with a 2A fuse in the 24V side also). The circuit board and relays all work. But it would not advance properly. I took apart the center feature of Circuit Racer last night to see what was binding it up. Well, besides a broken compression end piece of a purple TinkerToy stick wedged in the bottom, the only other thing was that the gear teeth had skipped a tooth making them out of time and offset to the left as you are looking at it, so that the tire halves did not line up when closed. I fixed that and I had to dig out a 3 mm, (read 1/8 inch), e-clip for the actuating pin end to keep the fork in place. . Sooo, that is all apart as of now.

Hope this helps. This is about as good as I can do with this camara and my photography skill level.

Okay I'm a little confused at the moment and don't want to drag my machine out to check. On the part that goes under the center feature, is the cloud of smoke par of the sticker or is that and acctual plastic part on there?

[knedvecki]

The cloud of smoke is the shape of the plastic mounting for the sticker. The sticker perimeter is circular in shape with a chordal cut across the bottom aligned flush with the plastic.

Okay here is the sticker with the blue background that goes below the tire.

Don't forget to look at the original next to it.

I know I changed some things but I wanted to make it right. Because Ferrari always had white #'s (not yellow) and they usually had a white and a yellow head light on each side.

ALSO REMEMBER THE PDF ONES AREN'T THE RIGHT SIZE! SAME WITH THE JPEG ONES.

.psd's do not work for me. But from what I can see in the thumbnails, Looks Good!

[mxfaiman]

Well I'm loading the psd for people who can download them so they can print them out if they want to. I'll look into what it will cost me to make a set of vinyl stickers if it is fairly low I might make a few for sale.

[mxfaiman]

well I just wanted to give you guys an update.

This one is taking me a little longer because I have to try to merge two pictures into one. But I did it, now all I need to do is fix some of the colors and it will be done hopefully by the end of today.

I attached a picture of it at the moment, you can see that there is a lot left to be done.

Let me know if there is anything major that I missed and need to change.

[mxfaiman]

okay I need some opinions on colors. Look at the attached picture. I need to know what you all think of the center colors (the two greens and the blue). I think that is close to what the original was like. But I want your opinons on the colors. I am completely willing to change them because I don't think they really go together. Anyone have any suggestions on some colors that might look good?

[Moparformances]

im ok with the colors... i would like it to be as close to original as possable... but im a purest

[knedvecki]

nice pair for Model "B" machines...

looks like ya answered your own questions.. but if ya need a hans with circuit racer fee free to ask

On the Circuit Racer, is there a timer delay on the center feature tire tulip and if there is, how long should the tire stay open? Or what causes they tulip to close. Mine, seems to stay on and as there is no end-of-stroke (switch like on a pinball), it tends to get hot. Thanks in advance for any and all of the help.

[Moparformances]

the tire will stay open for 5 or 6 balls.. after the last ball (i think 5) then the tire will close...

there are lights on the race track sticker.. they advance each time a ball enters the tire tulip..

hope that makes sense

[knedvecki]

the tire will stay open for 5 or 6 balls..
Thanks Mopar. That is what I kinda thought, but did not know if it should just stay on continuously until the amount, ( 5 or 6) had been met. I guess that I may have a problem with my tulip solenoid coil. I just got the broke off ball release trip wire screw drilled out of the shooting arm where it holds the wire (missing). I measured up off my other B models and will make a new wire from some .047 inch music wire. Thanks again, Keith
