There’s something beautiful about your track! It’s simple, 4 lane, no scenery, and looks challenging. Nice job!

Nice compact layout, I like the contrast of the surface color you selected, the black track and inner wall color. Well done.

Diggin’ the raceway. I have a 2 lane micro raceway with about the same total length (26’) of track. Granted, you have way more straights, so I’m sure cars on your raceway have faster lap times. Enjoy brotha 🏎️😎🤙

It's a fun layout. Great with a variable power supply to keep the power just right and allow for some fast racing but still keep cars from flying off the track frequently..especially with the kids and newbies. 😎🏁

Nice track. I see you mention hoscaleracing, I believe that site went offline, I wish I had saved some of the templates as I think there were numerous layouts published. I might take yours as a starting point. I have multiple doors so the goal is to extend off one side to add a superlong straight.

Nice track and video. Inspiring also, to those of us that are tired of not having a layout. Do people screw down the track and file the rails where they meet these days? I ask because I'll be using T Jet track, and I thought some one told me to dress rails using a file on screw secured track. I haven't yet found a video with that being done though. Four lane, the way to go!

Sorry for the late response, the old Aurora lock and joiner track is usually pretty smooth. Set up a small layout and see what you think. If you use anything to clean up the rails, vacume track well and go over rails with a strong magnet to pick up any metal dust etc

Im thinking of adding a hinge mechanism to a concept like this so that it could easily be folded up and stored vertically flush with the wall. when in use, it lays flat with drop down legs. thoughts on that? watch outs? any builds?

Bodies can get broken, especially F1 bodies, front spoiles/wings break easily with a good crash into the wall. Some type of foam is a good idea to help prevent damage. Some rigid foam insulation from Home Depot works well. I also really like that dense white foam like material that is often found as packing material in some electronic components.

@@mortonbeard2240 yes, use that to keep the cars from leaving that section if they out. We use the foam on the boarder walls around the outside of the track table to decrease body and chassis damage. I'm sure your ideas will work well.🏁

Use small trumpet head Phillips head screws or if you think you may want to change the layout, I have seen people use a tiny dab of silicone caulk in several places around the layout. TINY DAB ..just enough to keep track in place. If your happy with & know you want to keep the layout, you can then secure the track with screws.
