Wow that HZ looks like its taking up too much room, is it for sale. Well Gill I probably will never sell but thanks anyway, plus it's probably to much power for a female!! ( your profile?)

Davnic74 Posted February 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Managed to braid most of the tack yesterday in between visitors and beer.. Ended up running out of braid (forgot to calculate the extra track added) so 6 mtrs short... Also had a slow start glueing using a cake decorating tube. what a mess, so i grabbed a water bottle a silicone cartridge nozzle and this was the result. So should be doing laps this arvo..

Ember Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Aussie ingenuity. Gotta love it! The track looks like it'll be another cracker David. Hope you're happy with the Suede/Tuscan surface. It certainly looks the part. Quote Computers. They'll never catch on.

Davnic74 Posted February 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 Thanks Ember and Scotty, I think the suede will work fine after some laps are put in. still will wait and see if it needs clear..

Davnic74 Posted February 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 Went to Mobile Raceways today and picked up another 5 mtrs of braid to finish the last lane and started electrical work allthough i couldnt get the parts i needed i still had most finished and ready for the controller plugs tomorrow (if Middys has them in stock).. The controller plugs will be on top not on the side this time. Quote Regard's David Team Phoenix 4 x Australian National Champion. Premier Raceway Build Gallery Raceway Build.

shadow_rusty Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 (edited) Looking great... So nice to see it running... All of these nice tracks are so tempting me to make a smallish single lane rally track for testing purposes...

miveson Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 That surface looks fantastic - I'd never driven a satin surface before Saturday and I was amazed at how nice it is. If I was doing a track I'd be using the same stuff. Looks great Dave. Quote Slot Car Photos V8 Tipping Competition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davnic74 Posted February 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 (edited) Thanks guys Looks great Dave. Excellent work. Did you go with clear coat on top? John, no clear as yet, I intend on having a race meet first and then decide. Great stuff Dave, well done mate. How do like the layout now you have driven it? Yeah it's fun to drive and the new corners make it I think, the dog leg going on to the bridge is going to catch out a few people. That surface looks fantastic - I'd never driven a satin surface before Saturday and I was amazed at how nice it is. If I was doing a track I'd be using the same stuff. Looks great Dave. You won't regret it Mark, I was skeptical but after talking to OTFS and John I knew it would be fine..
