nice, no offense, as a tip, you should no have a dip in the corner(or even a starightaway)

Speed-D 02-28-2003 11:02 PM

Well, the dip I think you are right about. But the cars run better with it there, so it stays. As far a straightaway goes the shape of this track is going to be similar to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. IMS has small straights in between the corners. Those straights have been dubbed "short chutes". If I get this one right I am going to try a tri-oval next.

Even if it is not accurate it is fun to drive on and a nice change from a flat track.

Post some pics of your banked turn if you have any. I'd like to see it.

Speed-D 02-28-2003 11:17 PM

Can you possibly post templates when your done. I'm a big Nascar fan too. I wanna make a tri-oval bristol of sorts. lol

When I get finished I will post all of the measurements and parts that I used.

once i finish my downhill course, i'm giong to concentrate more on the huge grandprix style track i have designed and then i'm going to get right into the banking curves ( and i know what you mean with the dip in the corner, it does help with the cars, you can fly at the corners and fly out of them, i love it:D

I can't seem to get the vid working. Any suggestions?

Speed-D 03-07-2003 11:23 AM

You might want to right click on it and "save target as". It will take a few minutes to download.

PWalk 03-08-2003 01:53 PM

Got it, thx

midget_man1387 03-09-2003 01:54 PM

Looks sweet!!!

As a tip for your video, try adding more light to the room.
