    I absolutely love this video! Everything about it... The music is a great jam (burnin one to it) and the track construction is beautiful. It's an awesome track layout. I would love to have that in my backyard.

    It's an easy way to smooth out the dirt. It also helps when to track gets dry to increase traction.

    We used Georgia red clay, one of the best kinds of dirt there is!

  • @davidrivero7943

    We do that all the time, heavy equipment & all. That was 👍 but here in Fl. space is best reserved for a pool. 🍺😎✌

  • @CyconXc
    @CyconXc  12 лет назад

    Thanks man! For just the surface dirt needed to cover the grass, we bought 7 sq. yards at $22 a yard. Then the bobcat work was $100. Then all you need to smooth it out is a lawn roller, which you can rent from Home Depot for $16 a day. That's all without jumps, which we needed an additional 5 more sq. yards.

  • @CyconXc
    @CyconXc  12 лет назад

    Thanks, Georgia red clay is very absorbant! We've soaked to whole track with the hose after and it only made it smoother! But the real test is when it rains... I'll post an update if it does.

  • @DirtyHobo323
    @DirtyHobo323 12 лет назад

    I think I'm gunna try and make a track at my buddy's house, don't think I'll beat any buddy with my truck tho, just got the traxxas raptor svt, it's my first truck, just starting to get into rc trucks.

  • @remkorules
    @remkorules 12 лет назад

    Nice!!! Is the soil water absorbent? Our track floods when it is raining and it takes some time for it to dry. Thinking about digging some holes on the lowest parts (where the water stays) and filling them with pebbles.

  • @snsrcraceway

    I watched this a bunch of times - it is excellent. I am going to be building my own track. I just purchased a piece of land 22,000 square feet and we will have a house built on it. Out of curiosity, what are the dimensions of this track ? I'd like to do something that is around 30 x 75 feet.

    • @CyconXc
      @CyconXc  10 лет назад +1

      Thanks Peter, glad it was helpful. Seems like you have the perfect chance to make your own track. I'm pretty sure ours has a 70ft straight, but I'm not 100% sure. I'll measure it and get back to yah.

    That shouldn't be too hard. You'll have to take a dremel or rotary tool with a cutting/thin sanding disk and cut a little notch/slot into the screw. Then just take a flat-head screwdriver and it should come right out.

      Nah, it's pretty easy if you're just making something simple for 1/10th scale stuff. You actually don't even need heavy equipment. Just lay out the track using some corrugated tubing secured with metal stakes, spray the inside of the track with some non-grass-friendly weed killer, build up the jumps by piling dirt over some supporting cynderblocks and bob's your uncle. You could build this over the course of a weekend. It only becomes difficult and time consuming once you start building for 1/8th scale vehicles, since those tracks tend to be more complex with bigger jumps and other features, or if you want to use specialty dirt like Georgia red clay.
