Sorry I don`t have one of those new fangled digital cameras but maybe in a few weeks I can get some one to do it for me.
The track is built on an 8x4 sheet of Kingspan (the insulation foam board with reflective foil on both sides) with 4mm ply Evostuck to it, plexytrack lightly screwed to the ply and its cut into three sections for transportation.
We have a forestry section with three crossovers, a rough section,wet section and logging area, logpiles made from last years Christmas tree! Cork tiles are used for the trackside terrain, once stuck down they can be attacked with a wire brush in an electric drill to create ditches and layered to make banks and finished of with a mixture of paint and sawdust stippled on. PVA glue dries clear and makes great puddles of water.
We have an Alpine section made from layers of kingspan which raises the track up to 5 inches were it goes through a short tunnel along a rock face with ice and snow before a downhill chicane through a rock slide to a scandinavian snowy section (I`m still looking for a wooden hut to finish this bit off) past a frozen waterfall made from hot glue shaped before it cools down.
There are two river crossings with the pick up rails dabbed with paint to cause the cars to stall or stutter going through the water, we used oil based paint to make them nice and slippery.
I was given a set of tyres from an R/C truck they make a good chicane at a crossover on the tarmac section as seen on airfield stages and as they are screwed to the track can be adjusted in and out to catch out the Peugeot 205`s.
Track wiring is concealed underneath simply by cutting a V slot in the Kingspan and replacing the V and taping over with with good old duct tape.
The three sections are held together with bolts, wing nuts and metal plates from a DIY and electrics connected to each section with cheap and cheerfull RS plastic plug in connectors.
I hav`nt measured the track length but a good lap time using SCX rally cars sans magnet is in around 19 seconds.
Trees and marshals are added each time the track is put up and are slotted into small brass tubes sunk into the cork, it makes the track easier to transport.
I hope the discription helps a bit, good luck with yours- Cheers - Phil Barry.
