Im gonna buy some of these later in the week

40 training cones, in 4 different colours, that way we can setup one colour for left hand bends and one for right hand bends.

That way people cant get lost.

What do you think?

I decided that the cones shown were too small at only 200mm dia so ive bought 20 large training cones that are 300mm dia and 150mm high.

Here.



Theyre made of a soft flexible material that wont harm the cars should they get hit (But we're not going to hit them are we lads)

Got 10 red and 10 yellow so should make a great racetrack
