Thought I would send you pictures of my first ever routed tracks. Decided
to build a banked oval to look like red clay. Saw a picture in the
newspaper of our local dirt track and thought that would be fun to build.
It is 5 lanes on a 8' x 16' table with 10 degree banked turns and the
banking goes down the straight aways. Uses the trakmate windows
lap counter. I also decided because there was so much room in the infield to
build a 12' 4 lane Go Kart (or whatever) track to put their which can be
lifted out if desired. We can now have 9 racers at the same time. The 55's
Chevys do great on the banking, of course we run everything else on it too.
I have been eyeing my other room which has a plastic scalextric 75' 4 lane
road course on a 10' 19' table. Nice platform for another routed track.
Thanks for all your info on the cd and track building materials. I built
it all just using the lexan strips because I wanted to follow the natural
driving lines. I was very surprised at how easy it was.
Thanks again Tork Virginia
