I need some barriers! One of the Alfas took a small trip over the edge, bounced once and hopped into a black bucket on the floor. I'll look for some thin ply tomorrow.

That happened to me once too. You know in advance that it's not safe without crash barriers, but the curiosity about how the cars will perform on the new track wins over the mind.

That is a very nice new promising hobby room you have.
It's always good to do a test track first. It makes it a lot easier to create the layout of a larger permanent track.

The room is really a utility room with the central heating room off to one side. Three doors unfortunately so long straights - I like those - will be impossible. The big advantage is that the room is directly off the lounge so easy to sneak off without too much trouble

To a degree, it depends how difficult (ie...expensive) insulating the main loft is going to be and that goes over the entire house and will give me free space of about 10 metres by 7metres. Get a nice track in that space
