    The Alfa is an AGM/Top-Racer car. It’s VERY fast on the drag strip at 20+ volts since it’s designed to run at 12v. It’s wired like a 1/32 car which is reversed polarity from US HO. To get it to run, you need to unsolder the the motor leads, flip the motor, and re-solder the motor leads. If yo want the LED light to work, you need to unsolder those and swap the red and black connectors and resolder. You may also need to shave the guide pin to make it thinner and spread the braids wider to contact the rails better. These are faster than the MicroScalextric cars on the drag strip. Could challenge the Viper Alky funny car for real.

    Your video is what made me decide on these lights for my wife’s 2002 Superduty. I have morimoto on my Dodge and have to say I like the quality of these Alpha Rex very much! Drl and turn signals work well, however only the upper projector is illuminating. When I activate the trucks high beams, the upper projector changes. In your video it looks like both upper and lower projectors illuminate. Did you experience this at all?

    Sweet video man! If you don't mind a suggestion, I would recommend rolling your bars back quite a bit. It looks like you're getting a lot of front end tuck because of too much weight on the front end. If you look at your bike from the side, the angle of your handlebars should be in line with your fork angle (or slightly angled backward). That will help a ton

    I was just looking at these cars. I didn’t realize they were rated at 9 volts. I was looking at them because I have an older micro scalextric that moves out on my track so I was looking at more. I’m not sure what the voltage rating of the one I have is. I think it’s the older version though. Another fast cheap car are the Tyco HPX2. They are like the 440x2 but only 3 ohm I believe and were meant to run in the battery powered tracks. I have a stock Lifelike T chassis that rips also. It destroys the Mega G Plus cars. I like the catch curtain you made. That’s a great idea.

    I have yet to have anyone bring over a tyco HPX2 yet but I would love to see one. So far the Viper V1 Spec and the Viper V1 alky funny car have been the fastest. We have a few of the Life Like T-Chassis which are some of the faster mass produced cars forsure! Mega G+ seem to just be very normal cars but they have very nice bodies! The Scalextric micros for the money come very close to the Viper V1 Spec cars in this short 13 foot strip.

    I haven’t been involved with drag racing HO cars for a while. I got a renewed interest because I have a young son now and it’s easy for him to control the cars then on my road course. I was at the point that I was winding my own pancake motors for Thunder Jets and doing full drag builds. We had a full scale quarter running 24 volts. No timing just lights. It was fun. I feel myself being drawn back in. I will post a link to two cars I built a while back. I will check out the Viper cars. I’m not familiar with those.

    I have a 2004 F550 and have been looking for a grill and headlight combination. I saw your video last monday and started cutting my headlight support by Friday. It was an easy install, but I have two questions. When you hooked up the gray daytime running light wire, what fuse location did you use? My daytime running light fuse location is in the fuse block under the steering wheel. My issue is, that fuse is always hot, so as soon as I made the connection and installed the fuse the white rope light or C's "[ ]" come on and stay on even when I have my keys in my pocket and the vehicle is not running. My high beams also do not work at all, and the low beams have a constant flicker. 1000 times a min. I checked my batteries and charging system, that was all good. I pulled everything back apart, reinstalled all my factory lights, and everything worked perfectly. Put everything back to the new lights, no change... Flickering and no high beams - so frustrated!!! Yours looks killer... any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • @TheJimmysGarage
    @TheJimmysGarage4 ай бұрын

    For the running light wire tap you need to find a fuse that is 12v switched power only with ignition on. I believe I tapped mine into the radio fuse which I think is fuse 8 but mine is an 02. It sounds like a possible issue with your conversion harness that converts 04 to 05 wiring, you may have to swap a pin or something, the high beams use the same bulb but they open a cut off shield that gives more light on the road, so there isn't a second bulb for High beam rather when you flick your high beam a solenoid is activated to give more light on the road. The solenoid is mechanical so you should hear in in the headlight. As for flickering it could be a bad unit.

    They lights are plug and play, they utilize the factory blinker signal to initiate the orange. The white comes on when running lights come on. There is an additional tap for a brighter white running light that is optional but I did connect this to 12v ignition so even in the day time I have the white light on. I would think if you swapped the blinker wire with the running light wire and run orange all the time.
