Good to see you're up and building again Jens. Looking forward to watching progress.

Excellent! You know me, I love to see elevations.

 

Looking good Jens.

 

Interesting place for lanechange!
How do you want too handle it?

Looking wery good. Whats the distans of the track?

 

Hi all,

thank you for your positive feedback. @Lasp: There will be 6 lanechangers allowing best lane. It can be handled with Scorpius wireless. Length of both lanes is about 8.8m (about 29ft), best lane is a little bit shorter. Elevations are up to 0.35m (about 1 foot).

Regards Jens

 

Hi girls and boys
... worked little more today: Some sanding and painting. Some more weathering and highlighting needed but not too bad in my opinion so far.

@Slots-o-fun: Elevations are definite now - they will look like this:

Hope you enjoy it. I do!
Regards Jens

 

Naja,

"geben sie sich mal etwas MÜHE."

i ´m sure you can do it better

 

...if Frank once stopps his bad comments we will know he isnt okay.

 

Hey jens,

Looking forward to following your progress. Targa Strada del Vino was the beginning of a work of art, I hope this will be too.

Cheers,

 

Excellent work on the road painting.

I'm wondering how you're doing the routed lane changers. That's my question with my own routed digital.

 

Hi Bill,

LCs are handmade from 6mm aluminium (takes some time, but worth every minute). Combined with switchmachine from peco and electronics from scorpius (or whatever you use) and it should work. Scorpius is providing a plan how it might be assembled:

it´s me again

good luck with your new track, hope "MC Steel" also will go on? Can´t find time to do something on that. Only for scratching a few old cars

Maybe my cars can drive on your built some time?

Hope so

BTW I DO NOT MAKE BAD COMMENTS !?

 

Beautiful work!

Are the Ferrari and Toyota both Racer cars? Great photo, just curious regarding the scale of the two cars.

Look forward to your next installment, Freak!

 

Hi RecklessRacer, hi all.

thank you for your positive comments. The Toyota is a RACER, the 250GTO was made by FLY. I love both brands for their detailing, most I like the Racers as they have a slot.it chassis and they really are a blast to drive. Many of the Flys look great but dont drive good without tuning. Racers are extremely expensive and the Toyota therefore is the only one I own untill now. I only use it for "recreational cruising" as i dont want to crash it. I preordered a GTO250 from Racer, too but it didnt arrive yet...

Regards Jens

 

Hi Jens,

why don´t ya built your cras yourself like i do. so you can create a racecar like you need and wanna have like my newest creation on the go? a little lancia

BTW that track looks good , so far

 

Whoa, the Basement Kid is on the road again, wonderful. This is going to be a blast.

Hallo Frank, yes, building them on my own will be one of my future goals. As my time is little I first try to finish the electric part of my track, some scenery then and after all the village. When finished all of that a real nice resin-scratch will be next. For now I am little bit frightend because I did it never before...but I would like to take some photos with your cars when the track is finished...

Hallo Christian, thanks!

Regards Jens

 

Hello girls and boys,

some little update: Put on all the coppertape, assembled and build in all flippers. They are ready for connection with lanebrains now. Much more wireing and miles of cable needed, but I am happy with the result so far.

Regards Jens

 

This is looking really good! I love these wide-angle shots. That last one is very impressive, shows the cool best line options well. Paint job looks superb! Thanks!

 

Hi Jens,

wanna see cars running

 

...thanks guys, I'll do my best. Regards Jens

 

Short message: The targa is up and running (only best lane for now, flippers not working yet)! It is really fun, cars have to be nursed aound the curves in the moment because of sawdust on the track. Regards Jens

 

Video????

 

Hi Freaks, here we go: First Run Video of Targa Suburbia. It works! I like it, nicely flowing. Regards Jens

 

This track has such a nice flow and knowing what you can do with scenery, I'm really interested in the end result. It will be looking great, and also nice to drive.
