Bugatti Veyron, the best car in the world.


« Topic Start: July 13, 2008, 04:54:43 PM »

In my backyard we used to have a little playground and sandbox, but not anymore Cool. We tore it all up and was left with a lot of dirt and some sand. So I wanted to turn it into a monster truck track,  my dad actually thought of the layout that I'm going to use. It's 30 feet long by 16 feet wide. I plan on getting more dirt for jumps, bumps, and burms. for now we just have a big patch of dirt in the backyard, with some sand. I will post pictures in my gallery as soon as possible and report back on how progress is going when something big happens Smiley

comments and suggestions are welcome.

Pictures have been uploaded and are in my gallery.

Salt Lake Mini-Z Club Forum - Monster truck track

I don't know why the pictures are dark. The sand is on the half of the track that is right by the brown shed.(the sand should look brighter than the dirt) We havent gotten dirt for jumps yet, but we will.

tthat should be a good size for the scale of the truck.  it'll be great when you get the jumps setup.  if you go all out and have landing ramps and all it should make for some fun races.   Maybe we'll have to have monster truck race night at your house  big-grin

The track has been built  flex I will post pics and hopefully a video.  big-grin


EDIT
I'm sorry it has taken sooooo long to get pics up (which still arent up Frustrated) The track was covered in leaves from the windstorm that was quite a long time ago. Plus I actually added a little rhythm section whem I took off the leaves. Hopefully (Roll Eyes) there will be pics tomarrow.
