Thanks for all the great feedback.

The course is not built for speed if thats what your wondering Racer9. It does have it's spots where you can get going but as in pure WRC tradition it throws a turn at ya as soon as you hit top speed. At first the track was wide enough for 2 cars to be side by side but I dropped that because you rarely see that in "real" racing.

This is a course for people who like a challenge, no one is going to post great times on it their first time out. In fact most times so far for a complete lap on it have been upwards of 3 minutes!!
Then if your driving it backwards up the hills the batteries are dead after 3 laps around the track. I love it! Thats what a rally course should be I think, HARD!

This was my first ever attempt at this type of project and I am impressed with what I came up with. Total construction time was about 10 hours spread over 3 weeks. Cost? no more than $30, most of that spent on the clay I used.

If theres ever an event in the Philly area I'll bring it along for other people to run on.

So here's my question? What should be my next project? Inspire me people... and again thanks for all the great ideas people gave me during it's construction.

P.S. I need to thank my brother for his help in construction, there you go bud, you got your byline.
