Pulled all the pipe last night. 1800 feet of pipe. Funny how fun & exciting it is to put it down, not so much to pull up.

Logs have been uprooted and are moving to their new location this evening. Oh the joy of the log ride. We should be using R/C copters for the move.

Trying for a track with 60 sec. + lap times. Is that bad/wrong?

Black Jack Alley
21 Gun Salute
The 21'er
21 Jump Street

THE LOGS BRED & WE NOW HAVE 21

They have a new home, they live a little closer together, and should be a bit more fun. If that's even possible.

What's your take on a "lane split" scenario.

They are hard to get even...usually one line ends up faster than the other o it forces everyone through a narrow section.

Now with that said, I love trying new things, so if you think you got a killer idea on it, it might be worth a try.

The only features I really dislike on a track are crossovers...and that is mostly because I always end up cornering that spot and its a nightmare.

21 logs???? You planning a jump like they had at the "nitro-x" a couple years ago??

cross over jump

They had a cross over one year at aero mass that was very easy and fun. Cant remember the year. around 2001 summer shootout. (Houston do you remember?) if its not a major launch to get across I think they can be a fun addition.
