My track came in today. I haven't fully set it up yet, but I put together the banked 270 as well as the jump-bridge combo together just to get an idea of proportions. The full course has 2 more loops, including an extra bridge, but no other banked turns. The surface isn't as sticky-feeling as I thought (it's foam rubber with a criss-cross pattern embedded in it), but I haven't put a car on it to test it. Also, I'm a bit worried that my antenna (custom one) is too heavy-duty to allow the car under the bridge easily, which gives motivation to make the jump, *IF* it's possible to clear the bridge. I'll be extremely pissed if my antenna won't work, but I have a really nice antenna post (#4 instead of #2 plastic screw going through an aluminum deck plate) that should handle an internal antenna quite easily, and I have some serious antenna work to do on my "final" ESC. I'll have video this weekend when I race my dad & brother on the full track.
