My tracks.
I've been working on my road course for about a year now. I was happy with it until I fastened it down. It doesn't run the same, I figured it would, but not to this extent. The drag strip I just put up. 2 weeks off for the holidays and the honey-do-list is done. I'm still waiting on timing for the drag strip. It's 20' 4" from gate to where I'd put finish line. Using 1ft orange track from Walmart. I watch a lot of your channels and have read a lot on here. It'd be cool to host a tournament at some point.

Curious to hear what is the difference after securing the track. Good? Bad? Faster? Slower?
- I am also curious as to the issues you ran into after securing it down. — JBlotner42
- After fastening it down, most of it ran the same, but some of the corners especially the corkscrew, the cars handled them differently. Before they flexed with the weight of the cars. Now they are rigid. The exit of the corkscrew has been the biggest issue. Cars seem to bounce off outside wall exiting and want to spin. I'm still playing with it to see how to eliminate the spin outs — JaredC
- Interesting, thanks — alva1370
You need the track at least 5 times longer...Only joking,that is amazing.My tracks are about 25 and 20ft long.yours is 50ft at least I would think.i would definitely send in if I lived over there.its funny how one video has 6k views and another of sane yet different cars has hardly any....
- Thank you. I'd love to do a Nurburgring version but I don't have room for 1075ft of track lol — JaredC
- That's a lot of foots! — LobotomyScam
Love both tracks it is awesome seeing these come to life... Keep up the great work!!
Here's mine! Excuse the mess! I'm in a process of remodeling half of the garage at the moment. My track is at 20'4". I do have PlayRobotics starting and timing system. Good luck on your build with your tracks! 
- I like! — Dutch_Clutch_Racing
- so, the other half will be a 200ft mt track, with a 80' rally, right, if we are remodeling...lol — dr_dodge
- Lol! I wish! The wife said NO! — Zizzer_Prime
- Thank you. I need to get timing gate for my drag strip — JaredC
- Run your returned Deora on it for comparison to my track. Benchmark setting for your future cars you send to me. — Dutch_Clutch_Racing
- Oh yes! I didn't think about that! Thank you! — Zizzer_Prime
- I've been experimenting with start height, angle and distance to — JaredC
Nice! That's how you start. I'm jealous of the road course....I haven't started one yet!
