Keyboard is drool covered..... dang it!!! I'm wondering how much this track will flex for rises and banks.. And how much work it would be to put in a RR crossing or two..... Hmmmm..... I guess I have a 2 track mind....:freak:

I like the drag strip idea, I wonder what the race management system will look like. I've always wanted to do drags but I want a comprehensive system with red-lighting and ET posting. There was a place in Stockton when I was in my early teens that did 1/32nd scale drags and they had a full tree with handicapping and ET measuring.

Never have, but if I do I'll be sure to snap in the "Dead Axle". I wish everybody a safe and Happy New Year. Tuckmaster.

I'd be interested if they did Tomy adapters.

I like the idea. I wonder how the round rail compares to AFX rail downforce wise. I would be very interested in a banked track using this stuff.

What if you cut say 10 to 20 degrees off of the 180 and pull to parallel or for that matter any turn. Cut short and bend to match any layout. Great set up and I for one would love to see your company grow. How about a cut and splice kit for those who want to use your product to build a custom layout? Tuckmaster

I would never buy a track like this unless I had personal experience running on it or had a very close racing colleague who could attest to the track's running capabilities and quality from having run on it. There are plenty of excellent track system vendors out there and some of the established ones that we are all familiar with are still in business after all of these years for a number of very good reasons.

This vendor may eventually join the ranks of the good ones, but we'll have to wait and see.

I have run on this track and so has Hiram Durant, and others from the East Coast. This is a very nice and well thought out track. I have a Max Trax on order, (my 2nd one) or I would be getting A TKO track. I may just sell my Max and order one of these, that's how nice these tracks are.

Would love to run on one. Anything with less sections would be a thrill. :) rr
