    Ended up doing some work along a new section of our track. One of the group friends donated a bunch of scrap siding for a base, and we will b laying low pile carpet over the top. It's going to b cool to transition from concrete to carpet. I will post pics when completed.

    I think you guys should check out this thread.
    http://southernoregonrc.com/index.php?threads/drift-track-build-thread.1532/
    It shows my experience with build outside though this was a few years back and have better knowledge now. Started off great. Ended bad. Many chill nights but it was gone with one rainy weekend. thus is why I need a new place to drift. Lol. .... good luck. Progress looks great..

    We plan to cut it into sections and lean it against the house under an over hang. Sounds like Thursday night we will be running on the new set up for the first time. Anyone interested should come check it out

    Not sure what the weather is going to do this week so I will keep everyone posted. Hopefully we can do our normal Saturday run as well.

    I like the Mercedes body shell on the one car, but you didn't show us what's under that body.

    Nice. I was thinking a whole new system. I've been really feeling the hobbywing stuff. So im prob just gonna put in their drift spec system. Faster servo. Good find rich. But I think were highjacking their thread.
