Great job on painting and fitting that copper Marty 🤗 the joy was evident when you ran that first car. You are making it look easy, and I think you're going to inspire others to give it a go . Super stuff 👌 😊
Great to see your enthusiasm within your hobby. When I leave this earth, I'd love to come back and grow up to be a hobby store ow,er with a passion for this hobby 😅😂😅😂....luv your schematic Mon schematic.. am.sure someone one out there that is planning a roited will be following this for sure.
Neat, Mary. I'd be best pleased with this. The only thing I have noticed from the recording mic is something of a drum resonating effect as the cars race around the oval. Maybe it's not so noticable in real life to the human ear? The answer may be to use a bit of felt padding between the base mdf and the wooden levelling supports - assuming that is you have not glued or nailed these down? It's nothing much and does not really detract from a great piece of work. Otherwise, these home ovals are definitely test tracks and this because of the consistency with individual laps. Correspondingly, this thing speaks to those minor car tweeks (i.e. where to put balancing weight and how much and what difference a faster motor/gear ratio makes) and this because the proof of the Thnaksgiving pudding will be found in those thousandth second aggregate 10 lap timings. This is opening up a whole new world for you and I am sure you will have lots of enquiry and fun 😀
Matt, your woodworking craftsmanship looks top class. You did a nice job fixing a couple routing mistakes with Bondo. Durhams Water Putty, if it's still, available, would have also worked. I liked your low-tech idea for adding slight banking to the corners & straights. I think this oval will provide loads of hours of fun for you & your friends. I always found I needed to develop a different driving philosophy when racing on ovals & triovals than running on road courses. Things seem to happen faster & in more places on the ovals. You almost have to be alert for what's happening all over the ovals rather than just watching your car. But oval racing is fun! Do you have any future plans to add a lap counter to your oval?
Nice Job Marty wish I was closer would love to take some laps on that track foe maybe will have to make a road trip. Oval was my game when I was in the RC hobby travelled all over the States running Rc Oval Cars
Good job Marty. Looks great. If understand correctly you have positive polarity like is done on commercial tracks. What are you using for a power supply and how much volts and amps is it? Royce
Looking great at The First Capitol Speedway. 🎉
Oh that’s a good one..

I would blame most of it on the iPhone mic…😂 thanks Darren, it should be a lot of fun.. still more work to do but we are getting there!
It is a cool feeling when you make your first few laps on a track you built from nothing. Congrats Marty, looks awesome man.

🍻Mal

Nice Job Marty wish I was closer would love to take some laps on that track foe maybe will have to make a road trip. Oval was my game when I was in the RC hobby travelled all over the States running Rc Oval Cars
You should make the trip! Lol maybe one day Doug!
Great job, Marty
Thank you kindly!
Looking good!
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Good job Marty. Looks great. If understand correctly you have positive polarity like is done on commercial tracks. What are you using for a power supply and how much volts and amps is it? Royce
I still need to order the power supply. We have a small bench supply to run the tire truer that I am using temporarily lol.
You're up early.
😂
Looks just like my track. What's the total footprint?
12’x 6’.. it is a lot of fun!
Autodrome Ford?
Hmmm.. cool!
Looking good, Marty!
Thanks Jamie!
