I can't find pics that show the different types of Tyco chassis', I'm sure someone here knows of such a site.

Thanks in advance to those in the know. :)

That's a Tyco U-Turn Chassis. They have a set where you can spin around and go both different ways.

So that's why it has an micro chip on it, for reverse polarity?

btw, sorry about the pic's, it's been awhile since i've used photobucket.

Yep something like that. i think they came out early 90's not sure. I never had them but i did see them before - its kinda fun.

The circuit board contains diodes that allow the motor to spin the same way with different rail polarity as it does a u-turn. It's pretty neat to watch as it does a "Rockford" and keeps going. You can do this with most HO cars if you have lane reverse switches and a steady touch on the trigger. (longer "ski" type shoes help too) I think the phony plastic front tires aids in it turning around.
