Xmas Four lane Policar track

roguejackal · 10th-Dec-24, 09:24 PM

Well , Im after some help with the design of a four lane Policar layout for the xmas holiday break my area is a strict 3.00m x 2.00m and I will need borders on all corners and straights after them as I'm a no magnet slotter,
Im planning on all visitors doing some laps so I can get some race times up and hopefully get one or two interested.
Ive not built a four lane track before and because I will have to build it on the weekend before xmas Im after some ideas.
I have plenty of track stock including some R5's and also a fair bit of Ninco and adapters but would prefer to stick to Policar.

It's obviously a bit of a challenge to squeeze a four lane track into 3 x 2m, but here are a couple of ideas...

That’s fantastic

Are they r3 & r4 or r4 & r5 for the slower radius bends?

JasonB · 12th-Dec-24, 10:47 AM

I didn't use any R5s.

Hi,

I just wanted to give credit to JaysonB on his track design which I will be using and build in Winchester TN.
I did make a few changes due to that I had more room available to me than what the design was made for, I made the track longer and wider and used some bigger diameter corners, but did left one hair pin in place so the layout would fit my available space.
Layout Space 20'x8'

JaysonB - Great Design,
Thank you,
TN Dave,

Hi There,

I have started building my home track table for my 4-lane Policar track.
I have attached some photos of the build. I will be building a driver stand next.
After that, I will start laying out the track so I can get my power taps laid out and start the electrical work. I will have after market power supply, power shutoff rely, track timer/counter. Three wire speed control terminals for each driver.
I will follow up with additional pictures as I go along.

Cheers!
