A while back I suggested to Gareth that we could have a stage in the shape of the Toyota logo. He said fine, had a piece of MDF cut for me and so started my first plunge into track making.
A bit like me, it was smaller than I imagined and Gareth was sure we could not have it cross-over enough to drive the whole logo so had it cut was two separate loops. Well, armed with my new router (a pressie from my eldest step-son, Michael) I decided to prove otherwise (with much help form Michael).
We filled some of the existing groove and have redirected it - still the short one to go.
We did not start until after the GP today so darkness eventually stopped us, but we have powered it up and driven a car on a bit of it. It will be tight and one long left hand bend - but cool!
