I used to have a wood track when I was in the hobby earlier, and have been using Carrera set track this time around.
With the possibility of repurposing my space used for a model railroad that never seems to get operated anymore my mind is drifting to constructing a wood track. With that in mind I would like to ask some opinions on track design.
I have seen some wood tracks with lane spacing that changes to mimic a driving line squeezing together. My thought is it looks good, but probably a nightmare for actual racing. I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has done this and what their real racing experience is with this idea. I.e if you built another track would you still incorporate this concept or stick with even lane spacing that allows cars to run side by side anywhere on the track.
I was thinking of this driving line approach, but was wondering if it is a novelty that wears off quickly,and just becomes a major deslotting area of the track during races.
So again the question is, if you have tried squeezing track lanes, would you do it again if you built another track. It seems as most tracks are built with equal lane spacing
