i wanted it to look like i was racing through a forrest hence all the trees!

im proud of this track as it took me over a year to finish you see i started stopped, started stopped raced sttopped.

only until a few weeks ago when i was avoiding doing some study for exams that i finished it off.

tell us what you all think of it and maybe ways to improve the thing :grin: [/img]

Aww man I am so taken aback from this track. It just looks KILLER! Great detail, but in all honesty I have seen others to this level of detail, what sets it apart is the great track layout. To me it seems like a perfect mix of an oval and technical course put into one. Bottom line is this is insipring. Talldude I would love to see some of your other work.

:edit: oh yeah did you document your progress on this masterpeice?

http://www.rcpics.net/view_single.php?medid=33803

i strapped a cam onto a bit and took her for a lap!

took 13 secs to complete a lap with a cam on her, not bad considering it takes me usually 6-7 secs without a cam.

thats on the outside track btw noway in hell was i gonna get a bit up that ramp with a cam on her :lol:

Damn that is sweet. It looks pretty technical. How hard is it to maneuver a bit around that baby?
