Posted: Tue Mar 14, 2017 9:15 pmI agree with Harry, 4 inches. I was pushed for space so I got narrower on the straights. Also for the 1/25 cars leave more space for them to swing out on the outside of the corners. I cant remember how much I left on the outside of the corners, maybe 6 inches. Harry could confirm.

Posted: Tue Mar 14, 2017 10:46 pmOn my 4 x 8 oval, I left 6 inches for the outside. My 'wall' is some 3/4 vinyl for a wall, I just routed a slot for it and dropped right in. Clean and ready for advertising. LOL.
