That's Awesome! I thought I would share some pics of my track progress. The track is a Slotcarsinc 1/4 mi. Due to lack of space, the shutdown section is going to be removable for when it's not in use. The track is made with 2-8'' bases and 1-4' base that bolt together, it's 19'' wide with 1/2'' mdf on top. I picked up some non shedding grass mat from my local hobby shop for under the track. The guage rails are vinyl lattice 8' long I got at lowes. Dave

Great job on the track sst. You did a nice job on all of the details. Have you raced on it yet? If so how do you like it. What timing system are you using?

no I have not yet raced on it, I'm dying to tho haha. I'm planning on using the trackmate budget system, unless slotcarsinc comes out with a better one that doesnt need a computer. Heres the pics I promised....what takes up most space in the garage 69 Chevelle And our 86 Cavalier we run in Superstreet Chasing down the opponent Great ending to a long day Thanks for looking, Dave

Nice looking track Dave!!!!!! How about sending that 1/1 Chevelle along with your MM/PS car for me to do some T&T? That's a very clean looking ride.

Haha I would but you would have to do a little Fred Flinstone action to get it moving. The motor and tranny are out of it and apart right now. ;-)
