Hi all, and endless thanks to all the fantastic and creative people in the forum.
Well I've desided to start build a sectional permanent track that can be packed away even though it will contain different landscaping.
Actually I set out to build a small test track so that I could clean up and fine tune all my cars that have been in the chicken shed all summer.
But I ended up with this:
After a litle playing around I thought that it would be an allright track to build as a permanent track.
And I started playing around and planning the different sections:
I used some time finetuning the TwistyCurbyHumpSection:
I still han't got a good idea as to how I'm gonna support this TwistyCurbyHumpSection, so any ideas are welcome.
And out of the twistyCurbyHumpSection:
And into Section 3:
The cars used for elevation supports are some of the cars that should have been cleaned and here is another one:
I did a small video while adjusting the different pieces of track

Sector1 Back:

Sector1 Latch:

Sector 1 and 2:

Sector 1 Storage compartment:

Placing of initial elevations

The Goodwood Pass:

First Test drive:

Aston Coming down:

Cop At the turn Around at the mountain top:

The front of the two sections will contain landscaping and track aswell and so will the top and bottom pieces for section 2
I've got quite a few ideas for this so I hope I'll be able to maintain focus and tuck along with all this track building stuff.
So please tell me what you all think.
Cheers.....&
