Hi Paul
Are you planning to use magnet cars for this track? If not then I’d encourage you to square off the section you’ve shown in detail shots or perhaps have just the one kink, as it’ll be a horrible throttle off-on-off-on experience for a non magnet car on slippery scalex track.
50p corners have long existed in plastic track layouts but they’re usually not separated by more than a half straight or maybe a full straight. Having two or three full length straights between a series of 22deg curves is a very awkward thing to navigate.
With magnets it’s no problem as you could probably hold a 75% throttle through them and be none the wiser.
Just a suggestion. Of course you’d loose out on how faithful your layout would be, but then again, for a public layout would the punters even know that? All the best.
