Vinno Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 C'mon Gazza I am sure the pictures are just photo shopped pictures of the old Scaley track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schuey19 Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 Three days into the new year and we've had two significant occurances already. Cameron joining the forum, and now this! What next? Going a race meet without Gazza giving us a sample of what he had for dinner... nah that will never happen.

munter Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 That looks like it has potential....a great decision to go wood. I see those two essential power tools for creating routed tracks...the dust maker and the dust remover.

SlotsNZ Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 (edited) Sorry to hijack Joez thread.....but well, not sorry enough to refrain.... ....I see those two essential power tools for creating routed tracks...the dust maker and the dust remover. John HAH John... so you DO know what those special tools are called....... we're waiting........we're waiting...... for evidence of "Munter Raceway 3" So far the score is 0 for 2 ......No thread......No invite to the grand opening....... we demand irrefutable evidence that you haven't jsut retired to the garage for summer to drink tea and arrange your vintage parts collection......

Vinno Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 I am looking forward to running on this one, I hear it will be Raw Ferrodor. Another rumor is that Bo has extended his shed at the back section so Superflow will also be larger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ontheflipside Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 (edited) Raw Ferrodor :( I've got plenty of 80 grit Garnet Paper that can be used for the sand traps and to use on the concrete barriers as well.

Honestly we probably should fix this up as it started out when the forum was small. It probably isn't right to have it set up this way any more. I agree. there are a number of fantastic threads scattered throughout that have some great tips for track building / scenery that could be stickied as an easy to find reference for people building there tracks. Counts thread, The build of Knoath's 1st track, KK's scenery are a couple that come to mind straight away that would be great to have stickied as they all have some fantastic info in them.

And your a Moderator for a National Forum...??? At least Vinno can give a respectful answer.. No one track is more important than another. Because there ours...its not NSWFORUMS gazza!!

teamredracing Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Someones forgot that this is Joez New Track Page. Who cares if it's in the important box or not. There apparently seems to be some who do . The idea is to put your track on the forum for all to see and comment . To show different ways of design and track scenery . Everybodies track is important whether it's up the top or down the bottom of the page . Until now I never worried about it and frankly never noticed it, but thanks for bringing it up . Joe as usual top effort and am looking forward to having a run and trying to score a lap record on it .Saw it in it's different stages and now looking forward to seeing finished product. Buzz you tomorrow to see what your doing.

Vinno Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 It probably is relevant Craig as it looks like our lot think they are more important than the rest of the members. We need to do some forum upgrades to bring us up to 1989 at least. Sorry getting off topic and yes Joe's track is brilliant as is usual from Joe. You would never know he built the whole track from his wheel chair and made his own jigs to allow him to do it by himself. It helps being a fitter by trade and having all the tools in your garage. I am looking forward to the round there next weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stig Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 (edited) And your a Moderator for a National Forum...??? Well put Dave You asked a sensible question. IMO the only "sticky" thread should be the track indexand that needs upgrading. It is good to see all the new tracks. But as they are posted should not some one add them to the index,I thought this would be done.
