I'm thinking I'd like to try a build a hill climb track. The 1 piece mdf looks to be the easiest but what do I know. Any photos and links would be great.

Thanks

This is what I did with a 4X8 mdf sheet . . .

Sorry hit submit instead of review . . .

You could go higher if you want like Rusty of ourwayband did.

Bruce, what is it you are trying to do? Are you wanting to build a track for your shop to race on, demo cars or something for your house? How much floor space you do have? What kind of cars do you want to run on it?

There are two advantages to a Hillclimb and both of them are that they save floor space. They save floor space by having one straightaway on top of another straightaway and they can be put up against a wall and still be turn marshaled which saves floor space.

I've never seen a 1 piece MDF board track like the one pictured which is a neat idea but that's not a typical Hillclimb because it doesn't have one straightaway over the other.

Take a trip to Richmond, Indiana and see Fast Eddie's track. If you want I'll go with you if you drive your Shelby 500. :D :banana-dance:

Bruce, The Dragons tail climb I built takes up 4x8. I was able to get 80ft of lane by going up and back down in a continuous loop.
It was cut from one piece of 1/2 MDF.

Both tracks are cool but I was thinking of the single lane idea but then I would need timing. Two lane would cancel the need for timing.

Butch, I would prefer to have it a the shop. I just need to find a good spot for it.

Bobs or the 2nd one from nhdungeonracer is more what I thinking.

Thanks,
Bruce
