Trying a new track build.
#11

So slowly but surely things have moved on a bit from here.  I will post up a few photos and video of it later, but have smoothed out joins, put a base of paint down and glued in the track wire.  Still some clean up to be done on the slot and for the wire where I am a little messy with glue, but overall I am pleased with how it runs at this stage.

Now comes a question for the collective.  Where do you strike the balance when you make your track between fast or technical?  Are you building for the limits of the car or the "driver"?  Are you making a Monaco track or a Paul Ricard?  Do you plan a  forgiving circuit or one that levies a heavy penalty?

At the moment before I get into a lot of scenery time  I am looking to see where I should perhaps add some extra track area in some corners, or leave and fill in with scenery as a corner you can not take at high speed.  The table size and scene I am going for already means I am targeting smaller cars and rally cars, not the bigger DTM style cars.  What is your preference on a small layout?
