Hi,
Since my brother is 50 this year I thought I would make him a fun present, and what could be better than a bit of Scalextric
That must be just what a 50 year your man needs, and dream about

And as usual, I bought to much (in addition I had the left overs from "a little Norway in Sussex).
The biggest challenge in this project is to transport it on a plane to Norway in May, and to eneble me to get it onboard as spesial
luggage on the plane, it can't be bigger than 140cmX90CM
Well, this is the first set up I tried tonight:
I would appreciate comments and ideas on this small layout, before I start the scenery
Scenery itself is going to be a bit of a mix between forrest, rocks a pond and a few buildings. There will off course
be a bit of a climb up the back straight and turn.
Looking forward to some good ideas for a very small space!

PS: A while back I saw a very small scenic layout here at the SF, can anyone point me back to that?
