The "switchback" in the upper right corner will separate the men from the boys :flags-waveusa:
I think it will be a blast to drive and is chock full of scenery possibilities.
When you get ready to draw the track onto your MDF you will need my strip and router to get the spacing. The corners are tight enough the strip will probably have to be on the outside radius unless we come up with some other kind of contraption :lol:

After our son's graduation party this weekend I was getting ready to recycle the cake box, but it looked perfect for building a bigger model of the track. So I did. This is a 1/4 scale model of the track. With it I was able to get some perspective on how much elevation to use.
Heading to the lumber store at lunch time to order the MDF. :banana-dance:
