Very nice work rallyhub. And unlike anything we see here in the states.

Hi Steve,
Thank you for liking.
Yet there are also many beautiful scenic tracks in America, but rally driving is not so popular.
I guess, that will be the reason why scenic rally tracks are not common in the US.
Just for fun two photos of the track at night:

Was your track featured in Car-Online magazine a few years ago? It is a German publication and I remember seeing a gorgeous rally track with snow.

Yes, it was featured in the Car-On-Line some years ago and even on the cover of one issue.

I thought that was it! And yes, the cover is awesome!
I have a few years of the magazine as my resins were in it a few times as well.
It was a great article!

Spectacular!
Great magazine as well! I just can't read German as well as I used to.

Hub's layouts have been featured in media several times, a great advert for the hobby/sport.

After more than 11 years it was time for a cleaning of the Swedish Rally track.
Dust and especially MDF sawdust had contaminated the snowy surface.
First I removed almost all the trees, shrubs, figures and buildings and vacuumed the entire track.
Then followed a coat of white wall paint and some Noch SN140 Soft Flake (95790 Modellschnee), mixed with Heki Snow effect glitters no. 3343.
Both were sprinkled on the still wet wall paint.
Once dry, the entire track was vacuumed.
Now the buildings, trees, shrubs and figures have been placed back.
