Track pads consist of rolled and taped up long beach towels & rolled carpet segments strung through with rope. We also use beveled floor shop mats (cut @ about 3/4s of a square foot) to add some realism. I'm sure it sounds funny, but I'll testify that the towels, and carpet are saviors!!! Soft and cushy hits if ya happen to smack that wall. LOL. We call it a "Track in a box", for us home grown track seekers. Check this footage out, I think you can see what I'm talkin about.
