Hey Alex.. How about that astro-turf "Wall-Ride" idea?

I like the current layout but you can't expect perfection when the 1st layout was done in a hurry.

This winter I may have a few days I can help with track build. Work to many hours for now.

Track layout ws fine in my eyes. Kinda easy maybe but made for close racing which is what I like in a track.

Magic carpet wall rides.......really

I think the plan is to run track 6 weeks,(2 already done) we may be able to do some mods and run other direction.. have to continue to support track in meantime.. we will have a few more days to do next build.. "not in a hurry"

Working hard on getting parts/supplies in stock, if there is anything that you guys would like to see in, let me know... currently working on getting a wider selection of tires, and some cheaper speed controls and servos....
