I'm not sure what is int hat pic, but I have always used the plastic sign material like the politicians put in your yard, cut it to the right size, paint it and get out my glue gun.
The guy that bought the SCX set from me, now says it is junk and the controllers are junk and he is going to rout a track for his grandkid, (3 years old) on a 4 X 8 sheet. I suggested he get the SCX set working right and volunteered to help before he decides to junk it. I think his skill set just makes it hard for him to get things tuned up. I do think it is pretty junky, but I think that about all these plastic cars, and I am used to 1/24 cars and track with a controller that costs more than an SCX set! I set up that SCX set for the kid at the church earlier this summer and it did work fine.
I then suggested Carrera if he just wanted a plug and play 1/24 set on a 4 X 8 board for 1/24 cars. Of course, I said come and look at my Carrera track and I do have a couple new Carrera sets. I came to my sense's and said I wouldn't sell him anything else, but I would show him Carrera and he can go buy somewhere else. That way I don't get blamed because he can't get the results he wants!!!
