Ive set up a track in my garden!!

[wacattack]

Ive just created a track in the back garden using odd bits to create track markers (tool boxes, plan pots, sink bowls....)

Anyone want to come round and have a race? Thought id make good use of my week off work, and as its sunny outside - BONUS!!!

Just dont tell my wife as its starting to cut the grass up

[blitzboy]

[ben]

Take a pic wayne

Heres my wobbley hand trying to draw the line I was taking (I hate using a touchpad)....






My car shooting into the first corner, just hoping I dont clip the bowl or else its another trip from my rostrum (aka the garden bench) to restore the track....




My car on the grid for the A final, I managed to qualify in a PB of 4th on the grid (I feel a little aggrieved as I was the only one racing today)...









My car posing for the cameras as I took the win!! Get in!!...

Looks different to yours in the flesh. I dont have red, its orange (although the photo doesnt show that too well).

I must admit yours was the blueprint of the design, with a request to make it different as I dont want to be accused of steeling someone elses

a couple of years back Losi had a contest for the "Best Backyard Mini/micro sclae Track" and got some very interesting entries. I remember one in particular, since it was done so nicely with terrain and elevation changes and waterfalls and shrubs and flowers, that you could hardly tell it was a track - but it was awesome.

I think it looks awesome! I saw it running at Kiddy and it looks great.

so there is mine, there is your Orage one, and I think there is a Pink one going around somewhere (B44)

[DCM]

and a fluro green one now too Chris!!.... should of patented the design

[Chris Doughty]

cool. I guess I'm stuck with red now... most of the other options have been taken... :P

I will keep an eye out on the track for them, its always nice to see them running around...

one thing though, if you have this kind of shell, please don't use spoked wheels or yellow wheels, or even worse, spoked yellow wheels... I would cry

[GRIFF55]
