Street Derby Track

Here is my street derby track that I made for my first big hot wheels event. We also had a drag track.

Even though it had three lanes, we only ran two cars at a time.

Checking out the action!

I didn't get a lot of good pics or any video of the event. But here is a video I took while I was still working on the track. Didn't have the start gate on yet.

Awesome! Love all your set ups. I am new to all this slowly building my own track(s). I stole an idea or two.

Awesome track! Welcome to the club.

A simple but effect "stop box" for the end of the track is a zip loc bag filled with rice (but not full). Lay it across the lanes at the end. I also wrap mine in a micro fiber towel.

Post some more videos when you get a chance.

Which car ended up winning?

Thanks for the idea for the rice stop box.

Here is a pic of the winning car and owner.

Great stuff, CCRider!! Open track road courses are my favorite kind of racing. Thats a pretty serious drop angle!!
