Wooden track: 25 meters per lane, with "ideal lines"! For 1/32 and 1/24 cars!

this is what it looked on saturday morning!











Sunday evening the track already looked like this:








It's nice to have a fourth track to organise our races on! It looks quite easy, but it isn't... I'm curious for the first real race on this track.

That's a lot of squeez sections.

Are you going to run qualifying and have a staggered grid?

It'll be interesting to see how this goes, as I imagine passing may be limited.

It is very pretty though.

There are indeed a lot of squeezes, allowing the 1/24 cars to make the sharp turns. Jo's intention was to put as much meters as possible in on his available space, wich is in my opinion not always the correct decision. He ends up with lost of same corners and lots of the same short straights... I like also more different corners and straights on a track.

As for the track it looks as though it will be great fun are you going to add scenery at all?

Bleep, they owner chose for a maximum of tracklength and a minimum of scenery, as he doesn't care as much as the rest of us how it looks. Same thing for his cars too...

That track is looking better and better each time I see it.Them walls make the track look good but also prevent car smashing against the floor damage.Nice to see the 1/32's on there aswell.

I think we will race mostly 1/32 here, because of the limited space to overtake with the 1/24's...
