hey guys,

we are thinking of building an indoor carpet track for 1/12 and maybe 1/10,
i would like to know what space i should have for a 1/10 track?? whats a good size, not too big and not too small, for 1/12, i was thinking 30 by 15 meters (100 by 45 feet) would that be enough for 1/10 or a bit small??

whats an average straight line length for 1/10 electric??
any tips and advices are highly appreciated

cheers

100' x 45' is big by most standards. Most tracks in the midwest are 80'ish by 40'ish.

Both.

A 100'x45' track is cabable of hosting a whole variety of events. The IIC in Las Vegas runs on a track that is 100'x50', so this would be a great starting point for a new carpet track.
