Take a look at some pictures of one of the tracks
I have made a few changes this week, we now have two tracks one is up and running now fully, its is inspired by the FIAT test track in Turin. It was great today to un-boxed my Italian Job Scalextric cars and give them a blast, thankfully no damage to them. Sport Track designed cars are a bugger on old classic track, got them running after a lot of messing and swapping pieces of track around. Still got around 100 peices to clean for main track, need to get it running. yet ;(
Enjoy the updated pics.
Every one is welcome and if you wish to bring your own scalextric cars down your welcome its a RUN WHAT YOU BRUNG EVENT!!! All models welcome not just Minis.

Rover Minilights make great bridge supports...... lol.
Hopefully Friday afternoon I will have the main track running, got a 14x12ft hole to fill and around 100 pieces of track to clean and lay down and a rear subframe to change. No pressure then. Also a drift track to sort Saturday morning.
