I with others have been practicing out there every week we have damaged our cars, arms, c-hubs.

Part of my plan is to replace the timbers with half moon type treated pine fastened with dyno bolts countersunk. Painted yellow with road paint for longevity. Cars will roll over the treated pine and will cause less damage to toy cars.
True but your doing well to hit the timber thats left. I like the idea but to start with i don't think it needs replacing straight away. I have a friend who works in a timber yard and could supply the necessary bits to put in place of the missing ones. Rest of surface is great. Paint still looks ok and the ripple strips are in good condition.
