Yeah I'm a member of that forum as well. That's where I originally found out about your sweet track. Someday Hopefully I can check it out.

The track still needed a few areas touched up when the photos were taken, I've since fixed up the sides of the jumps and turns so everything looks nice and clean.

Wow awesome stuff. Ok so how about some tips on how to better build tracks.
For instance.
What can I use to pack my track once i have it designed.
What are the keys to building a functional jump with the right slope and angle/

Thanks
Jeff
