Ratshack Racer - stepper decoded!

Found a piece in The Robot Builder's Bonanza ( an Excellent book) which explained how to use VOM to decode 8 wires. Confirmed I've a unipolar stepper motor. Also determined I'll need another chip to interface to Oopic (damn!). Even then I'm not sure I know the correct phase order .. anyway that's progress.

This Racer will make an awsom bot .. someday.
