You can get drag strips built by Brad Bowman or Wizzard. http://www.bradstracks.com/ http://www.wizzardho.com/.. Now if you want real detail on material measurement and have big bucks contact Steve Geary in Norfolk NB. He has been building drag strips for years. He sells the rail for the track also. I built my strip with MDF board and used suspended ceiling wire ties for the rail. Once the rail pockets are routed with a router the rail is glued in with carpenter white wood glue. Go to this web site and click on the "Wooden Tracks" link on the home page htttp://www.hoslotcarracing.com/index.html. You will get the idea of how deep and the spaceing the rail and guide pin pockets should be. THIS IS A MUST READ ARTICLE. Any other questions just ask.
