We've got a track!!!

[blue_pinky]

Lots of brushing to do this evening after all the monsoon weather we've been having...and we've lost the bombhole...but gained a pond...time to think more seriously about that soak-away I reckon!

But got a track laid, and ran some cars too before it went dark...

We seriously need to arrange some race dates now...it's bloomin ace fun!!!

[s22jgs]

looks really good... seems to be a nice flow to most of it too

[Dudders]

Well done to all involved, cracking effort!

Thanks for the positive comments guys

It's been designed/made in such a way that all the shapes, lumps, and features are smoothly graded in...it means we can run the track markings anywhere we like over them....it's all driveable from any angle!

Mostly made with rounded, soft gentle gradients and shapes, but with a few key faces/features specifically shaped to give more lift (jumps!) than others...but still all blended in so you can run any which way...and all the up's have downs!!

The only fixed feature is the straight, and the only hard track marking is the tyre wall alongside the straight! The focus has been to make natural feeling offroad racing features...no hard edged man made geometric features that become obstacles, and not a touring car track with a few features!

Fingers crossed its worked...testing so far certainly seems to be positive

natural jumps, a perfect mix of corners, and gnarly camber changes - one of the best astro tracks I've seen.

Can't wait to next race on it, has awesome variation. Proud to be a part of building it

I enjoyed hving a run around here at the weekend, in between heats for 1/10th on road

[blue_pinky]

You'll have to watch out you don't end up enjoying have a run around the onroad track in between offroad heats!!!

The dark side is strong

Definitely the better way of doing it.
