hey all, I guess this has come to a point now where Im really frustrated, heres the deal
Basically one side of the track has some really bad resistance where the car doesnt run or sometimes runs really well, then other times runs really slow and then again other times runs slow and fast in the same lap at some points running normal speed the slowing down to about 10-20% of the speed in random parts of the track. The red light on the connecting track dimms or sometimes even turns off when the controller is depressed.
Heres what Ive tried
First off Ive got 2 sets combined into one track I designed which has now been taken apart to a simple oval to try and narrow down the problem this didnt work .............still the same dimming and slowing down.
4 different controllers which 2 are now burnt out, tried different controllers on the bad track side, the controller will work fine on one side but not the other with the same result of ........slowdown and dimming power light.
2 different power adaptors on both sides singled and doubled ..........still the same problem
2 power adaptors plugged in different sockets on the walls in different parts of the house .........still the same problem.
different cars..... still the same problem
So the breakdown,
I have the Full power racetrack Part# C1221T combined with the T2 sport advanced track system so about 50feet of track tried with either 1 or 2 transformers, different cars, broken down to a simple 14' with the same problem. I can only run one side normally

as the track is laying on some sort of thin rug thats installed in my attic. The
staple has that burnt black metal look to it as if it has been in a fire.....a very close call.
