Grip on sport track also puzzled me, but when fitted (using a good example of Wrexham's superb track) I thought it was much smoother than Ninco. I've visited Phoenix and found that quite good. But me being a fussy routed track racer, found it quite hard to get accustomed to, patricianly the bumps. I have 2 routed wood tracks near me, Pendle, which became one of the British slot racer's favourites. And also, Jim Brown's amazingly fast track in Preston. Both of these tracks were built by Pendle Slot Racing.
I have attempted to build my own track from roughly 1 inch MDF and I bought a router. I drew out the track on the board, but that was as far as I got. Other things unfortunately took priority.
So I'd say you just need time to work on a project like this. But once it's done you'll never have uneven track problems again. And a completely personal track!
O I believe Wolverhampton Scalextric Club are buying Hamilton's 4 lane wood track.
