THIS IS AN UPDATE ON MY FIRST POST HERE. I HAVE ADDED TO HARD TO FIND SCENERY PIECES IVE WANTED FOR MY TRACK SINCE I BUILT IT....SUMMERTIME PRICES ARE CHEAPER ON EBAY AND I SNAGGED THEM. HERES A LINK TO A BUNCH OF OTHER SCENERY IDEAS FROM MY TRACK. THERE ARE 11 PAGES OF PICTURES AND ALBUMS. ENJOY!! MY GRANDSTANDS ARE NOT JUNKED JUST MOVED TO THE LEFT A BIT.

 Like anyone could tell those were tri-pod legs through the fence! Heck... if you didn't recognize Mr. Skateboarder Homie you probably couldn't even tell what figures those are through the fence... If I were you I would tell people the tri-pod legs are a new billboard in process!  Shawn

This is an excellent looking track, but it is too perfect. It needs some hotdog wrappers on the track and maybe some bird poop on the seats.

Hi Mark, Very admirable work. One of the better 'scenics' I have seen. Are the pit wall and chain link fencing scratch built? If not, could you please tell me where to find or who manufactures them.
Looks great... showmemore |
