Hi Gerrit,
Thank you for liking.
The wooden fences are painted with a mixture of green and brown wall paint.

Hi everyone,
Thank you very much for liking it. I really appreciate it.
Here is some more information were you can find this track:
In the November issue of Slot Car Magazine you can find an article about Slot Rally Hill.
https://www.pendleslotracing.co.uk/slot-...ue-76.html
An article about this track will also appear in the upcoming January issue of the German slot car magazine Car-On-Line.
https://car-on-line.de/
On the Facebook site of SRC you can find another video of the track:
https://www.facebook.com/srcslot/videos/...7135658645
If you want to test Slot Rally Hill yourself, that's no problem, but you'll have to be patient until the next UK Slot Car Festival on the 11th and 12th of May.
The track will be shown there and I hope we can have a chat.

Hi Hub,
Looks fantastic with all those shrubs and trees!
I am of course hoping you will give us some glimpses of the process, there might be some good ideas to steal...
Best Regards
Carver

I wouldn't like to guess the time gone into that track, those trees aren't all the same, there's even different species.
Life is like a box of Slot cars...

How it started:
It started as a small track consisting of only two segments.
Sketching the track on 4mm MDF boards. 3mm Plywood boards as base, reinforced with raised edges
Hand clamps from underneath to connect both segments. Caster wheels for transport.

That is so impressive Hub.
Can't wait to see it at Gaydon and hopefully say hi.
