Build Journal: Korea 1:64 scale track

Hello!

Here is Republic of Korea. Incheon city.

I have been visiting this site often.

Most of the tracks are from abroad.

So, I'm also going to try to make a track once.

I have always loved car racing.

I started watching 3dmotmaker's video on youtube and was impressed.

It is difficult to find hotwheel products in Korea, so I usually use ebay.

Vehicles are easy to find, but tracks are hard to find.

The crash racer track is currently waiting for delivery, and a diorama to be installed on the track is also being prepared.

Fat track is not available in Korea, so I'm looking for it on ebay, but the shipping cost is more expensive than the product price.

My English is at the level of an 8-year-old child, so I use Google Translate, but I want to do well.

I hope you support and communicate a lot.

Thank you!

Pipes for the track and stand have not yet arrived, so I only tested cornering with the track.

looks like a great track my friend

I am in the process of planning a design also

All track parts have finally arrived.

The track was worked a little shorter than before.

The start gate and timer also arrived, tested and completed.


  • looks good so far. when gluing to the pink foam, lightly sand the surface with the writting on it to remove traces of mold release. That will make white/wood glue stick better. — dr_dodge

It's looking good! You'll have to come build my track next!


Track 3D printing is complete.

The floor was originally made of grass, but because a lot of powder was blown, a concrete sheet was used as the foundation.

The dimensions were checked using 3D design, the wood was cut, and test driving was also completed.

Now all that remains is FAT track straight printing, diorama, and background work.

ah! And I upgraded the track by making it 1m wider than the first track, making it twice the length of the existing track!

p.s. I would like to thank Spoolheads for their help with 3D printing.


  • looking good — dr_dodge
  • Very cool to see a road course with lanes throughout. Nice job! — redlinederby
  • This looks great and I like the two lanes which should provide exciting racing — Phil_NWA1

Very nice! Keep at it. Don't worry about the english... I've seen much worse from people who actually speak english as their first and only language!

The track is not yet fully completed.

Buildings and parking lots in empty spaces
And in order to make it feel like a racing league is being held in Korea, we are working on building models for Hyundai, Kia, Hankook Tire, etc.

There are still many things to add to the diorama, such as the placement of figures and parking lines, so this is currently in progress.

I'm uploading photos as I finish the weekend.

As soon as the track is completed, we will work to ensure that you can see the first die-cast racing league held in Korea.

p.s. Even in Korea, I like McDonald's and Starbucks, so I'm going to include two.
lol

I am uploading the first die-cast race video in Korea.
