Is it just for one truck? The lanes look a little narrow. But the size is pretty big. Looks great.

wow nice track, just currious what you did to "groom" the surface/what kindof soil it is, seems to compact very well

Here is the tedious way I did it. I roto-tilled the yard, used a heavy rake to pull the grass into piles, used a shovel to move it outside the track area, re-raked the whole area with a hevy rake, PUSHED a lawn roller over it that was meant to be towed behind a tractor (what a nightmare only had a hitch no handle) re-raked with plastic rake, wet, re-rolled etc. I used the lawn roller on it 4 times and the last pass I soaked the ground then put a tarp over it and rolled it so the mud wouldnt stick to the roller. Now it is really compacted I just use a shop broom and keep it wet and it seems to of turned out well.
