Part of me says well done, the other says how can you remain entertained by it. In a nice way. I get so bored of things like that in hours.

Fair play to the commitment and work gone into it

These are old but gives an idea of the circuit.

Start/finish line and inner loop - "The Complex"


"The Hill" in the background. Foreground will be the pit facilities.


"Dragon Pass" background. "The Cutting" and "Shell Mountain" in the foreground


"Park Complex" there will be trees, picnic tables etc.


This gives an idea of how steep the mountain pass is

That does look really cool....

...although it would have to be said that if it took you 3 odd years to make, I really hope you like the track when you actually drive it!! Would be a real bugger if you decided to change the layout

It does look really good...after a few beers down the pub could be a lot of fun

Its taken ages because I do it in spurts, get bored and don't touch it for 6 months. I buy cars now and again and if we go anywhere on a trip I'll try and buy a car (or train) as a souvenir.

I want to get it to the stage thats driveable with all the grass down by christmas. I'm starting on an OO gauge railway track in the other half of the loft. Rail layouts are quite complicated to wire up so I expect it'll be finished by the time my 6 year old goes to Uni.
