I liked them, they look good and they are effective. And they make my 12th scale fly, but that was all my fault. It's kinda hard to drive with only one front spring!

So they kept you in your lane better, punished you worse than pipes but not as bad as the old boards?

Jeff the boards are great, but if you left them un-painted or stained a natural wood type color the track would easely be world class.

Will we be needing a coaster to set our water on too? If the boards are to pretty I may not want to crash into them!..Which happens way to much with me...

Staining or natural is a possibility but we are going to make some 8' sections that would be from particle board to save cost so they will look a little different. I think we should at least paint the tops of them green.

Once we get done making them all, we will need some help finishing them however we decide to finish them, Painted or stained and cleared.

Jeff,
did you find that Micro chassis company I was talking about? I saw your chassis stuff on the for sale forum.

I'm not sure how well he did in the main, but he was pretty damn fast!

All I know is I sucked hard core that night, hoping to make it up Thursday!
