one of the many perks and blessings of having children ~
it's short term manotany for long term simplicity. once it's done, it's done and changing is simple as taking them up and putting them back down.
glad to see your track up and ready to roll!
watch the cat, stretching and clawing will tear into the foam. replacement tiles can be bought cheap though. another perk of a modular track. does the cat chase the dnano around?

Don't let your cat scratch theme tiles! My cat scratched only one tile. Sprayed her with a bottled water and she hasn't done it since!
Cat scratches won't necessarily effect the cars handling, but it makes the tile unattractive.
Let's see if your cat will chase the Dnano's around the track! Mine just sit's there and watches me play.

Yea, I can't get my cat to chase anything unless I tie a string to it which would be too much for the Dnano's. It's kind of cool though how she sits there with me and watches. I like that!
But now with my Dad's new 2 year old Irish Setter, I have no more time for the track and just recently sold it. Gotta run my cars without one.

Track looks great Patrick.
FYI, with the smaller cars like the mini-z and dNaNo, you can get away with not putting on the top male PINS. I see you already installed the top PINS, which is OK as well, since you really only need to install them once. You can dismantal the track with the rails attached in sections of four tiles. This is how I store the tracks here at office.
PS..if your cat damages any of your tiles, send me a PM or email and I can help you out.

If you have the room, that is a great way to store the tracks. With this method, it should only take a few minutes to set up.
I think the MIni-96 is a perfect fit for the dNaNo as there are many different layouts you can create just with one kit and it will all fit in a limited space. Yes, adding some expansion tiles and maybe a few larger radius turns or chicane kits will really enhance your layouts.
I have tested all types of surfaces from carpet ~ plastic and rubber appears to be the best surface for these cars. Either true rubber or EVA foam.

The Dnano's are much more fun on the tight Mini96 than the larger Z's. As the cars require a lot of room to gallop, an expansion pack is a must for the Dnano's I think.
