I have feeling you are going to be quote busy at the UKSF Lloyd.
That is a definite attraction.
Best of luck and keep the pics of the progress coming.

Nice, what's the footprint and rise on that?

Neat!
I'm always interested in hillclimbs. One in 1/43 is something new.

Thanks for the replies guys.

This is like a small part of my home rally track, but with much easier turns. The final, routed version may be like this, or may have reverse lopps top and bottom.

MichiganCur, I cannot remember the actual size, I made it to fit in the back of my small Peugeot hatchback. The angle when assembled is 30 degrees, I will take the measurements tomorrow and post them then.


So do I WB2, my home track is 14' long, 3' deep and the height from the lowest road to the highest road is about 5', so this one is just a tiddler!

Regards, Lloyd.

Thanks Loyd, was thinking about trying to route a hillclimb thinking it would be a bigger track in smaller footprint. Something to practice routing and scenery on before I try a regular full sized track

Just my style..

great layout, Lloyd, very nice!
the only thing that i´m very afraid of is that very steep decline on the right side going down from the top to the bottom. be sure to have a safety net at the end ;)
did you think about reverse loops on top and on the bottom?
what is the date for the slotcar festival? i have a switching relais for reversing power just for a hill climb lying around here, but i would need to build the electronics to activate it by light bridges in the slot with CNY37 detectors ...

Thanks guys.

Peter, I am doing a template with top and bottom loops. I have someone who knows electronics much better than me working on it, but I need to keep both options open given the time limits.

The festival is on the 14th and 15th of May.

Regards, Lloyd.

Great track ! :clap:
You should have lots of fun :music-rockout: :music-rockout:
Keep the pics coming in :banana-gotpics:

Thanks Cyclone 60.

MichiganCur, I have the measurements.

Space required when in use, width 51" depth 31" height 19 1/2"

Base 51" x 27"

Frame, 51" x 35".

Regards, Lloyd.

it´s awesome Lloyd!
it makes my fingers twitchy to build a hillclimb.
only need to find some space ....

You do not need much space Peter!

Now that there is another 1/43 slot hillclimb not far from me in the UK, does this mean a possible circuit and hillclimb proxy?

Regards, Lloyd.

Cool tanks for the measurements
