Let me add my attaboy to you for a track well done. She does indeed look like she will have a nice flow. I look forward to watching the scenery progress.

That is simply fantastic! What a great looking track! Your attention to detail - like making a jig to put holes in for the braid...well, I'm going to go take a chainsaw to my hacked-together track now...

Wow. The wait was worth it. If you are going to tell me next that you are planting the track with miniature trees you've grown from seedlings - I'm going to pack it in.

Seriously cool update!!!!

What happens if two cars crash and the drivers both push their track call buttons?

I have raced on several tracks that had multiple track call buttons, but those were removed because of issues with a second push causing the track call to be cancelled. We always use track calls with no delay time, if you use a delay you probably will not have a problem. We like to use a single button on an extension cord, that is fine if you have an extra person to man the button. If you do run into a problem with track calls you can have one driver in charge of a button or you can wire the buttons so that the first push will inactivate all of the buttons. A single reset button would be needed to make them active again.

WOW ! That is one awesome track! I must say looking thru your posts it reminded me of the many trips to The Glen the buddies and I have made...especially this morning as I look out my window at a foot of snow. I cant wait to see your finished product!
well done
