someday I want to video these races... bought a Samsung handheld [hand grenade size] camera but it is designed to fit in the right hand, cool, but pressing the launch button puts my hand in the picture and requires i stand closer to the starter...
old track raced right to left... new starter will race left to right, letting me stand further away from the starter [fewer steps toward the finish during passes]... moved the launch button from vertical to horizontal and back 5" to get my hand out of the pix...this is how it starts...

Brian, can you get smaller [1/2 size] versions of the 1/64 stickers you had ?
I want to sport one on a section of the Lexan starter door, so it can hide the timer switch on the new track starter...
full size stocker blocks the view [potential video] of the racers...
..... I have Paypal...

Next time I place an order for the oval stickers I can see what sizes are available. For now I don't have any alternate sixes, sorry. The ovals haven't been as popular as I had hoped, oh well, they'll go good as prizes too.

Do you have any of the red square stickers left? I can send you more of them if you want.
