Where are you located? There just might be someone on the site nearby.

RACERS FROM... TX., TX., MD., OH., MA., TX., IA., PA., WA., TX., PA., CT., WA., CA., ME.,... AND COUNTING...

I'm from St. Louis, MO.

So, when you guys set up for a race - does the track stay on the board when the race is over? If so, how do you "not" crease the track? Stupid question, I'm sure, but I'll ask anyway!

Mike, the orange track is removed from the board after the race.

Welcome aboard!

Hi Mike, welcome to Redline Derby! Glad you found us and hope you check out all that Redline Derby has to offer. Between the forums, the blog and our fantasy league racing game, there's a lot to keep you busy.

The accordion track design I came up with is intended to be easy and quick for storage, so the orange track comes off when you need to stow away the track. But there are popsicle stocks on the board that are used to line up the track when you set it up again. It's not the fanciest of tracks but it's easy, affordable and works great if you have limited space.

Here's a post on the popsicle sticks: http://www.redlinederby.com/2010/09/kee ... -straight/

Post or PM me if you have any questions about Redline Derby. I'll speak for everyone here when I welcome you back to the hobby of Hot Wheels. We're all collectors but there's nothing better than putting your cars on the track. Have fun and happy racing!

Thanks for the welcome, guys.

On vacation next week, so I'm gonna see what I can do.

Looking forward to it!

Merry Christmas to you all!

Mike S.

Howdy and Merry Christmas!
