I think it would be cool to see where you guys race, either backyard or club tracks. I am gonna build one in my backyard, don't really need ideas just want to see what's out there...i am a fan of design

Cool, I will have to post some pics of my local track when I get down there, and my backyard track when it is done...
any advice on how to get some dirt to build with? Are there companies that dump some dirt, maybe clay? How much does this cost? I might be movin to San Diego this fall/winter so maybe I will race you atomic someday...[>:]



scrapheep -> RE: Let's see some pics of tracks!!! (5/13/2005 8:39:11 PM)

Keep your eyes peeled for construction sites with excavating equipment and lots of dump trucks...alot of times dirt is being hauled away to clear a site, and you may be able to snag a load for the cost of the trucking.

I'm thinking about building a track on my property, is there anything I can readup on about rc track design, about jumps height and width and such.



GabeBoudreau -> RE: Let's see some pics of tracks!!! (2/19/2007 8:06:54 AM)

Here you go. I have plenty of these!

4 meters wide and as high as you like and aim for a 40 second lap time.



Losi8racer -> RE: Let's see some pics of tracks!!! (2/19/2007 10:39:46 PM)

one of the best 1/8 tracks in the US.

Losi8racer -> RE: Let's see some pics of tracks!!! (2/19/2007 10:57:13 PM)

it's called the farm II , home of the 2006 1/8 nationals and home for the world championship in 2008.

location charlotte,NC

unfortunatly this is a track that only gets raced on a dozen times a year and no practice except the friday before race weekend, but man is it worth it... there are people that will drive 1000 miles just for 1 race... laptimes are about 50-60 seconds...

thats my track may change this year. The owners change the configuration every 2 years or when all the racers vote on a track change.



jkkfam89 -> RE: Let's see some pics of tracks!!! (2/20/2007 2:17:49 AM)

Mbdisano:
This track is in Highland/Hartland Michigan off Hickory Ridge.

I did not take the video and was not in that heat so I am not sure who had it. Rodslinger is one of the tracks where the Georgia Championship Series will be run. I when up on Friday and camp in a tent Friday night and the low was around 20 degrees. No fear as I had a heater and stayed plenty warm. When I go up Saturday morning there was ice on the track but was gone by 10AM. Here is a good link to keep up with RC racing in Georgia.

I am going to try and make it up to Loganville either this weekend or next to do a club race as it is one of the other tracks the GA series is going to run at. Here is a video from Loganville this year. Not I did not take it either.
