we currently run on an indoor track, using square drainpipe as our main track markings, our main issue is the corner sections, were currently using thin plastic strips with a block of wood on each end that slide in to the trunking. it surves its purpose but doesnt look all that great, also hairpin ends, we use old motorbike tyres that get moved all the time.
looking for peoples suggestions / ideas as to that you use at your local club.
any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The club i race touring cars indoor with use strips of foam with a outer layer of plastic. I will try find out exactly what they used. You can shape corners and hairpin easily

for the hairpins we have made teardrops out of wood to slide into the ends of the pipe about the size of a table tennis bat.

for the corners we use round plastic pipe pushed into the square pipe with a strip of plastic taped to the it to give a smooth surface
