Mullins Motor Speedway
OK TinyRC lovers. Here's my track. I got a cheap disposible camera and took some shots. I need to get a camera to take close ups as that's where this track really shines, but that's for later. In these pics you can see the whole layout. It's 4'x8' on painted 1/2" plywood. The outer wall is baseboard and the barriers are 3/4" trim strips. It has an overpass, helecopter landing pad that the cars can drive up to, and even has a gator pond with tiny cat tails. The two parking lot areas, one with the four hot wheels cars and the one behind the pit lane, will be built up as I go along. Little buildings, or maybe a carnival. The track, one of the open lots, and the access road to the copter pad, all go under the overpass. The little yellow and green striped walls are gates that can be opened or closed to section off the track. The little white balls on the top of the gates are affixed to pins that hold the gates closed. You pull up on the ball to release the pin and open the gate. The overpass is covered in textured HO scale random stone material, and even has vines growing on it. Best part is, I didn't have a dime in this track until I started adding trees and such as I had all the materials lying around from other projects. So, here we go with pic number one.
