    @@BoonesSlotCarGarage It was just like camping! Haha I have friends up in Houston who didn’t get power back until late Sunday night. One had a tree fall through his roof and I to his kitchen. The rain water destroyed all the hardwood flooring in the kitchen/dining/living room area. The cabinets soaked up water from the floor and have all but fallen apart as well. I live out in the woods and will have cleanup work to do for the better part of a year because of Beryl. The entire forest is about 10 - 15 feet shorter now and all the treetops are on the ground. Lots of free firewood, though! 👍🏼 I’m glad that you and yours were spared from the brunt of the storm. I hope all is well with Deception, too!

    I had to move and needed to give away my 6 lane 18’ x 8’ AFX track with 6 long chutes back and forth . I used the widest turns . I found 18””turns , 15”’12” respectively. Banks had to use 9”, 12”, 12” tightened up as close as possible . The bridge I used the 1/8” plywood for the 4’ transition’s . Very fast track with no trees or anything to reduce visibility and painted 3/4” ply gray . Used stock AFX cars with 2 deep cell 360 cold cranking amps car batteries in series . The cars took the 24+ volts with no problem . Didn’t need to put racing armature s in them but “ OMG “when we did just playing around ( gotta play ) . Ran 3 classes of stock armature racing classes in the stock car ,F1 , sports cars . gearing and stock magnets were allowed .

Thanks! As a follow-up question, how could you do this technique for the backside of a banked turn.. I'm struggling to envision how to get the foam board to curve.
