Regupol track in Sweden.

It´s 8x4m, 4mm Regupol 6510 with 4mm wall-to-wall carpet.
Here´s pics on the costruction. The curbs are to be painted, and railing mounted.
I´ll post more pics as we build.
There´s more pics if you change the url´s a bit on the end.

Seastar.. I noticed at least 2 tracks in the same building, How many cars do they run per track at the same time??? Is thier a freq problem....

I always wondered if I could open up a Mini Z race location and actually make enough money to pay for itself??? But it seams that for the amount of cars that can run at one time you could not make enough to cover your overhead cost of operation...

How many 27mHz frequencys are there, 13?
Then some run on 40mHz.
But 6 cars on one track at the same time is enough for a clean race.

In Sweden the PST (the office running the radio frequencies) has let a range free for RC usage. We are running a number of frequencies with minimum 0.020 between.

So with some cheating there are room for 20-30 cars at the same time without needing to share frequencies.

We are running up to 8 cars on each track at the same time. It's abit crowded if beginners and racers are running at the same time but it works.

And as always there are companies that take their staff oput to try and that pays alot of the rent for Jimmy who runs the show.
