Hey guys! 

I got pointed here by 3DBotMaker. My name is Wil and I have been a Hot Wheels fan forever.  I am medically disabled and I spend a lot of time just browsing videos.  Guys like 3DBotMaker, Races4Fun, OurTime4Adventures, and Gravity Throttle Racing have all inspired me to build my own track.

Step one was building the platform. I don't have a lot of space Only 30" wide), however, I do have about 12' in length and roughly 4' above the base of the track to work with!

You can see what I am talking about here: youtu.be/MKefa2ail6I?si=Bx0Nc9uEPn64EbDH

I want it to be a racing league, points, etc.  It will be a two lane track until it drops down to level 2 where it will become a wide open fat track to the bottom featuring multiple curves.  The big question is, how would you guys proceed with the space I have?

I've never built a HW track this big, or with as many details before. Any help would be appreciated.

Wil

Welcome!  Look at your space, hold pieces up by hand where you want corners to go, see how it looks, what kind of angle, and just basically trial and error.  Keep at it and you will find what is best use of the space.


  • you two are starting this at the same time. post build pics, and search everyones track builds, and learn to build a few 60g cars to test with. it will save lots of heartache later — dr_dodge

Welcome and the very best of luck, but most importantly have fun.
