Mr. Glitch
Took the Novak Switch to Novak. I told the guy behind the counter how it was glitching and he popped the case open, pointed to a corner of the circuit board and said, "See that capacitor? That's your problem. This is a known issue with the Switch. We just remove the capacitor. It is supposed to stop the unit from turning off and on but on some units it does the opposite. We have eliminated the capacitor on later units. We'll remove the capacitor and check it." 5 minutes later it was fixed.
I hope I never have to post on this issue again.

Here's hoping that removing the cap takes care of it!

[B]i never liked the tri-shock system(found it inconsistant and a pain to rebuild trackside) or the dampener disks(too loose) so i came up with an alterative. for those interested it goes as follows. start with 2 CRC dampener tubes,using a mini tubing cutter,cut them down to 30mm. take the inside plastic shaft and cut off 15mm(2 rings left) now slide a .018 spring inside the tube and fill with your choice of dampener fluid,slide the shaft in and your done. the springs inside put just a hair of preload on the tubes and help it to react quicker than dampener tubes alone.
above are the pictures. TAZ S was kind enough to resize them for me so they could be posted
what do you guys think?
