New Javelin: Motor, Tires & Lights?

[gorp]

Thought when javelin was opened up as analog it appeared red lights on when braking.

Added the dpr chip and they worked only when running, not braking.

Maybe just imaginating it but was testing car out for comparable digital trans am use.

It passed easily but those red lights now have me confused.

Since there are no front lights thought this feature was rather pointless anyway.

The motor looks like standard motor with a green end but it appears quicker on digital track.

The tires are said to be slotit shaped inside and are really good stock sticky tires.

Am impressed with both (and the toy itself) and hope they become available for purchase separately soon.

I have the Javelin as well and have digitally chip and the entire rear section glows as if the lights are to powerful and the are visible from the front as well I was wondering if your is also.The car runs well be really looks odd with lighting effect.

You can use black matt paint around the LEDs  to keep the light from bleeding. Is is also a good idea to paint the inside of the car either silver or black to avoid bleed through.

Thank you, I will be asking the wife to get us some paint.

You can use nail polish as well :-)
