I've been thinking about experimenting with a portable digital routed (PDR) track. The easiest approach, I think, would be to rout the track, and then drop in the plastic digital pieces. Given my constraints, it would have to be portable. I'm thinking that two 5'x3' sections combining to make 10'x3' (that is about 3.5m x 1m) would make a significant size for fun racing, but small enough to put in the back of my van or store under my current table. I'm thinking (of course) of a rally type track with some small elevation changes. Here are two preliminary plans that I drafted. I'm leaning toward plan #2 because it's simpler to make as my first go at this. I'd love to have any comments or suggestions.

PLAN #1

PLAN #2

Hi Bill,

I think that I understand your problem. On the right hand side it will be very tight & challenging to drive, how about if you open up some of the corners and maybe move some of the track under the raised motorway, sort of getting a slightly larger radius than R1 or remove the second tight corner ?.

Paul.
