i know i suggested this ages ago, but applying the stripped finished line paint at inside edge of inside turn tiles would look nice and might function well as grip points for close cornering.

Yes, I was thinking of doing that with green finish line paint. It all comes down to the cost. Oil prices are going up again and it directly affects the cost of the raw materials it takes to make the tracks, being rubber and plastic. The retail price of the tracks has stayed the same for the last 6 years and I don't want the overall cost to go up. We have absorbed all the price increases from the last few years of out of control oil pirces and will try to do the same going forward.
