Ta Fella's!

Funny, it's the first time I've tried drawing it before I get there...somehow sketching it up on paper is far easier (for me anyway) than standing in an empty room with a pile of ramps, guttering and hose!

I drew a couple up for the other night, got another 1 ready to go for friday already...unless I can come up with something else before then.

Might try and get a section on the website for track layouts once we've got a few goodun's in the bag...most def got to keep the fast flowing tracks coming...it's tough without all our track building guru's of old around helping out, but we'll get there

Ace night on Friday I thought, racing was great, although I had a bit of a crap night racing wise myself, must have used up all my concentration building the track , and finished nice and early, Pete even rolled a carpet up...now that's progress

Ouch!
I can roll carpet up, just not very quickly - bit like my driving!

Ace fast track Andy, it means I really must get round to rebuilding my cars and setting them up

hehe..sorry Pete! You did a sterling job on the carpet rolling...anyone who helps on that job is a hero in my eyes...you know that

And what is this rebuilding you speak of...not sure what that is...I've hear a few people say it now...mine just go in and out of my pitbox week after week...they only get rebuilt if something breaks...hmm maybe I should work on that!

twas a cool layout - I particularly liked the sweeping left at the end of the main straight. the kinked straight underneath the rostrum was entertaining too

could more people run their SC10s next week please? lol! and maybe the crossover could make a welcome return?

Well, using your X6 as an example, you've had to rebuild that twice this year haven't you? And you're not doing too badly with the B44!!
My car's were built at the start of the outdoors season and haven't been apart since
