Hi there, just letting it be known that I am working with the Camp Hovey MWR (morale wellfair and recreation) to start an R/C track here. For those who don't know Camp Hovey is in Korea it is one of the most northern installations in Korea. So if you are in the military coming to Korea then remember us we are at the planning stage and are looking to have our 1st race in March also if anyone out there has an old scoring system just taking place that would like to give us a super great deal our budget is super tight mostly coming out of my pocket and thats not deep at all please let me know I will be setting up a web site soon as well and some ideas for materals for the track it is going to be on-road I have started tracks before and I know pvc is great and thats what I usually use but no room in the budget for all we need right now what do you all think of sandbags layed down to create a layout any ideas would be great thanks

Sand bags would be a great choice, especially if you can get smaller longer ones.
Water hose can be used also.
Wood also works great. 1X4" side rails sandwiching 2X4" pieces with one end a male design and the other a female design so they can lock together. You can make smaller corner pieces for angles set ups also.

well im pretty sure i will b getting deployed in 2 years, wonder if i can make my own track in the big "A" desert???

maxx there are tracks in both afgan and iraq for soilders if you get the time is another story depends on the type of unit you are in I didnt to many missions for me

haha i understand that, im support, so who knows how much time i will get. my dad has 2 tours there, so ill have to ask him. ill prolly have to force myself into liking nitro im assuming, since theres so much sand! im more of a carpet guy myself haha...

Old fire hoses can also be used as track barriers.
