initially local shop guaranteed 70VA plenty of power for lighting,
to date we are at 225VA. Lesson learned, go with LEDs.
Track power supply 21 volts, 10 AMP available; shared by both lanes.
Fastest recorded lap: 2.9 seconds with a modified Fly viper.
Out of box Fly's, typically run 8-11 sec. It is fun at 3.5 sec but motors and gears don't last.
Magnets, motors and gears are key.
