Posted: Sun Apr 06, 2014 7:35 pmThat truly is a beauty! And the lines seem to flow really well....I was curious, what lane spacing do you have?
Re: Circuit Courville - a new track in Québec
Posted: Sun Apr 06, 2014 7:38 pm3.5" between the lanes. No squeezes.

Posted: Sun Apr 06, 2014 9:10 pmYes I did, when I had a Scalextric track. Now, a lot of them would need some work to run well on a wood non-magnetic track. But I have hope that one day, I'll be able to work on all of them...

Very nice track with a great layout looks to have a nice flow to it.

Posted: Tue Apr 08, 2014 11:08 amI was googling around for drivers station information and stumbled across this picture...
I believe it is your Scalextric layout from before your scenic routed layout :)

2014
When you first started this project, I was thinking "Man I can't believe he's tearing up that great layout"..
But now that I've seen it all come together, how it opened the room up, and the real professional commercial look to it I am really impressed.
I love the drivers stations.. like some sort of Star Trek podiums LOL.. I'm not quite ready for this type of layout at my house, but I
certainly wouldn't rule it out in the future.

Posted: Tue Apr 08, 2014 3:20 pmYes, it was my first scenic layout in this room. Great memories. And we still run those Beetles on a regular basis, ten years later!!
As you said, it really opened up the room. And that's exactly what I was looking for in the first place. Thank you Kevin, your new layout is coming up great too. Love the backdrops!
Hope to see you soon in a racing event somewhere.
