Here are some specifics on my track.
Footprint= 4' x 12'
3 lanes, with 4" lane spacing
Inner lane is 19', lane 2 is 21', lane 3 or outer lane is 24'
Power supplies'= Yes Supplies, I am running a variable 6-14 volt 5 amp unit on each lane.
Each station has its own digital volt read out, and can be adjusted from the driver station to accommodate any motors in any cars.
controllers= Pro. Motors adjustable. brake and trigger sensitivity at your finger tips.
Track call buttons= each station has a track call button for those way to often crashes.
Lighting= 4.5 volt stadium lighting all around, with there own power supply.
Track surface= 1/2' MDF, with three coats of terra cotta satin latex. acrylic painted racing groove.
Copper tape is used for conductivity.
Fencing= a combination of 12/2 romex wire on wood poles, and gutter screen retaining fence.
Timing= Track mate IR system in place, with remote screen.
Plans call for some more spectators, and some small buildings. Ticket booth, refreshment stand , etc.
The whole track and scenery will be based on a 1960's era of stock car racing, and all cars that run here are/will be scracthbuilt.
NEVER underestimate the fun that can be had on a small wood oval! This thing is fast and fun, and is easy to maintain. If your ever near the "Crossroads" of Georgia, come on in and give Hells Gate a try!
