Hey urnotevenwrg2;
-if I build a new lay-out; it would require more track prep and time
-the same lay-out over the years let's the local guys get the chance to be faster than us (me). Some are still try'n.
-I have ran and raced at the Floyd Bennett Field Track (6 - 10 guys on the grid; overall)
-I stopped race'n my pro chassis because it was get'n expensive and take'n-up time for repairs. Other drivers crash'n in my car and break'n parts made me feel that it's not worth it. - - -That's why I came up with the Fastest-Lap Challenge.
-I only race(bash) with my Tamiya TT-01.
Batteries. . .I mostly still run Ni-MH. But my son let's me use his 2S 4000mah 20c or 25c Li-Po batteries (sometimes). I'm scared of Li-Po batteries (fires). I won't charge them near my house.
-the Track basically runs half the running track area. It's 1-lap x 2; and the two halves in reverse.
-it has 4 Sweepers, 4 Hair-Pins, 4 Short Straights and 4 Medium Straights.
Best of all; it's MY Track Lay-Out.
You'all welcome to give it a try.
Thank You
