Long story short, I'm splitting what was going to be a mega track (covering three 3'x6' tables in my garage) into a 3'x6' rally track and a 3'x12' oval track and am down to the little details.
Anyways, the oval track will be 12'x3'. Not the best widgth for that length, but I am going to make a lot of area at either end available for turning.
I'm looking at having the lanes 9" wide, so that I can have a nice interior area for a road course that will also use a large part of the oval, but the lanes will expand out to around 18" at either end about 2-3 feet from the end.
Going to be racing Bits, Zips, and SuperSlicks.
Anybody had any experience with banking said cars/scales?
I'm thinking that the SuperSlicks will be at almost top speed at that distance. Rolling them through the corners is not something I want to do
:D however I'm not sure that banking on such a small scale will do all that much.
I will be doing the track mockups this weekend before I finalize everything, and will probably try without banking at first.
