hi guys i,m new to the forum but if you like to see my track and a few cars from south africa go to the gallery and see more in [toni pedro].would like to hear your opinions and sugestions

 

[zipp]

hey toni, welcome

you are obviously a very accomplished modeler, your scenery is fantastic

You have a very tidy layout.
With all that terrific scenery you should be able to take some great racing action pix.

Looks like a wonderfull layout that you have
Do you run it clockwise or both ways?
Is it a working pit stop?

[toni pedro]

hi nice hear from you
yes it runs both ways and against each other [my 6 year old loves that one]
also the pit lane is working with separate switches under the track it,s home made with 60 deg. corners and std straight for both in and out of pits.the 12m lap time is 4,1 s with fly chevron .power supply is home made 9v dual 4amp regulated

 

[toni pedro]

hi zipp good to hear your coments .i only been doing this hobbie for 3 years .i,ve learned a lot from your guys pictures and forum

 

[jnr_seahorse]

Ignoring the beautiful scenery and landscaping you have done, I love the actual track plan itself. Deceptively simple but very effective, with a little bit of everything!

You must be very pleased

JS

 

[toni pedro]

thankx JS. the main straight is about 4m but the corners are abit tricky. i put some shoe polish on the corner of the caffe,just to make it more fun [it,s a bit slippery there] also with polistil i was restricted to 60 and 30deg corners

[iwgunter]

Cool split screen van in loads of the pictures. Is it a slot car, or just a model?
And in the last photo, is that a navy blue beetle?

 

[toni pedro]

hi guys ,thankx a lot for the coments,now to answer you guys. yes alot of the figures are tamya military figures that i cut ,bend and glue ,and yes it,s a slot vw van[a plastic toy before conversion to slot ],and the blue beetle is from a airfix static kit

 

[bacardibeast]

Very, very nice circuit! Love the scenery! I'm afraid my mag less cars would make a few spectator injuries! But great track all the same!!!

 

[jhardy33]

Toni,

Nice looking circuit. I especially like the working pit lane. Could you post a few pictures of the pit lane and add a small how you did it? Some work in progress pics of it would be nice.
