| + | * [[http://rclapcounter.com/|Transpoders]] - Let them know you are using them for the Power Racing Series. It will be a kit you need to assemble. (Just some LEDs and battery connector to solder on.) Note: Supposedly we can make our own... there's a link somewhere with Arduino code and a schematic! | ||
| + | * [[https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00X456V6K/|Duracell Procell 9 Volt Batteries,12 count pack of 2]] - Multiply the number of cars times two for a two day event, and then get a few more. We give each car one battery each day. Note that Orlando has used rechargeable 9 volt batteries.) | ||

| + | ==== Medals ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | In Milwaukee we did not have Burke designed medals, so we made our own. Your quantity of Acrylic may be dependent on how many medals you need. (There's a formula somewhere.) Obviously you need a laser cutter to make them. Note that we should update this as Patrick uses different color & thicker material. YMMV. | ||
