Micro scalextric layouts and other - Steam - 26th-Feb-26

I have been playing with micro scalextric. Been into scalextric for years but a mistaken purchase of a micro car sent me on this venture. Also I use the track for car roadway on ho train layouts.

I do layout planning the old fashioned way

This is one of my favourite tracks

And this one is to fit a specific sized area
More to come.

Yep, old skool always works, who needs a pc or phone app

Been mucking around with various layouts trying to decide which I like best before I commit to a semi permanant fix. 2 schools of thought were in play, layouts to use all the track I have here and layouts of actual real world tracks and other ideas. Real world tracks do not necessarily make good scalextric layouts. I think a good long straight or 2 and a few twisty bits as well as corners work best.
I have narrowed it down to 3 or 4 layouts so I will show my choice shortly after some scenery is added.
Been away for the week so I am now back into it.

Don't forget to leave space for the track marshals.  Thumbup

These are the layouts I have settled on. Dont worry about the small gaps or overlaps, the track connects ok.
I just need to make the final decision then get on with the scenery etc.

RE: Micro scalextric layouts and other - Chris AFX - 20th-Apr-26

I use my computer to plan tracks, the latest six lane track below. 

What I am looking for is someone to 3D print me 15" banking for Tomy AFX track, they make 9" and 12" but that limits me to 4 lane banking. Any ideas?
