Default ev0ls secret lair/back yard track/crawl spot build progess

Most of you have seen this but here is my track progress thus far,

With the go-fast track nearly complete, I am starting on my scale tough truck course. Right now it's only in the building stages, but I'll update as I go.



I made a little bit pf progress this weekend as I had some time to work on a couple of obstacles.

What material you planning on using? I have a bunch of dxf files drawn up, that my lazy a$$ engraver has yet to cut. Believe there is a pic of the one he did manage to cut a few pages back in the scaler thread.

They will be on metal with wooden poles. I have access to a vinyl plotter so I'll just print them out on that bad boy.

Is your course going to have any water flowing through it? Also you should add a suspension bridge to it.

I hadn't planned on it because there is no natural water source where it is, but I havn't ruled out doing something. I was planning on some mud pits just to make some of the crawls more challenging. We will see what happens, I have power nearby so mabey a pump and water recovery.....who knows. keep the ideas coming in, I need em!

Thats exactly what i was thinking... Having a stream with pebbles and river rocks would be awsome. Maybe have some lower water crossings going through it

You guys are welcome to come up and run slashes or offroad buggies anytime, I'd love for the track to get some of the dirt worked over. It needs to be run on so I can finish pulling up roots and weeding it.
