K, here's my problem.

There are no Z racers in ottawa that I can scare out of their holes.

I feel weird buying a Z, but never going to be able to race it with anyone.

The mighty gripper stuff is cool. it's got a checkerboard pattern of weird clothy rubber bumps... and between is just nothing. It would take some serious control to drive a Z across it without flipping or rolling.

Loose dirt... uhm...

...as long as you look over your Z and make sure that none can get anywhere problematic, you could get little beads, and arrange them in a shallow tray. If you had someone that shook the tray every once in a while to settle the beads... of course you'd probably get some that just shoot out...

hrm... maybe if you were to just to get a lot of clay from outside, and form it into a track. It'd be interesting to try... Can you buy dirt clay anywhere (non hardening stuff)... the stuff you can pack, that becomes firm...
