    pic of homemade track design

    this is a link to the design. the whole track is about 20ft by 40ft. the lanes are about 4 to 5ft wide since only a few people will drive on it at a time. tell what u think of it, what i should change, and if u think the lanes r wide enough

    It would not hurt to change the name of your pics.

    looks like a fun little track.. Better stock up on some parts.. that jump over the lane reminds me of my Matchbox(or was it Hot Wheels?) Criss Cross Crash set I had when I was a kid.. lol

    hey are those obstacles coming into the track after the jumps??? that will be cool, except if you keep crashing and having to move the cars...maybe they should be really steep mounds that will only slow down the drivers who cant manuver around them instead of making them just crash, and also those bumps might slow down the cars too much or get them off line, and you wont be able to clear the jumps, especially if you want to jump both of them....but other than that, it seems pretty cool i like the tunnel does the tunnel serve as a jump also?? it seems like it would, unless you bury the pipe into the ground or something, if it is a jump, it looks like you might jump off the track, since there is a tight turn right after the tunnel....well hope you can get start working on it and finish it soon later

    Why is it that when you're driving and looking for an
    address, you turn down the volume on the radio?

    Why is a boxing ring square?

    thanx guys

    the bumps and jumps we wil try and can always change them if they dont work out good. the tunnel will serve as sort of a hill on top but not really give the car any air because of the turns right after it and before it. ill post tons of pics of the finished track when its done. it should be done before the end of summer.

    also my rustler just arrived from tower hobbies but it also just rained

    you could switch the jumps and the bumps around so then you jump over them and if your short your messed up alittle/off course

    another thing that would be kewl is if there are some dips

    That jump where the bump is over the other part of the track, you need to make it a little longer because they would fly out of the track
