Well it has been a long time coming but I finally put the time in and finished the majority of my 4 lane oval. There are always details to add along the way. This has been a stalled project I finally regained interest in. It is built on a 2' x 6' 8" hollow core door. It incorporates 6" and 9" curve sections for nice tight racing. The mountains/scenery were built from "Great Stuff" spray foam in a can then I take an old sponge and various color acrylic paints and sponge paint the scenery colors on the mountains. I printed the advertisement off on a color laser printer and spray adhesive it on the back and put them in place along with the grand stand photos.
The late model sportsman bodies are plastic bodied hot wheels cars called "Maximum Leeway" that I took the bodies off the Hot Wheels chassis and Velcro taped onto AFX G plus chassis with the old foam tires to get them to slide through the corners like the real cars do. I painted and decaled a few of the bodies with various decals I purchased off of ebay. The structures were vintage slot car track buildings I acquired from slot shows and off ebay.
I really enjoy building these small 4 lane hollow core door tracks! There is a lot of detail and racing excitement in a small package!!!!
Even if you don't have a lot of room for a large layout this only takes up a 2' x 7' space and sets up and breaks down to store easily.
A big shout goes out to many of you for the detail items I received from your generosity and in swaps.
So with that I bring on the pics for your enjoyment.
Enjoy!
