Thank you very much for doing this thread. I'll be getting the summer bonus check soon and I'm really trying to get one of these. I'm watching very closely and taking notes. I'm hoping you'll test both plastic and metal tracks and give your observations of the differences in performance, maybe even with video. Still a ways to go to get to that point, eh?
Is it OK if I call you Will? You can call me Gary or Max or even Will, as that's one of my nicknames, being the first four letters of my last name.
I'm looking forward to photos of that on/off switch. Sounds pretty cool. And is there an option for a variant without the zim?
