arch2b's ever changing RCP Track
ever since i got my rcp track, it's been changing... that is the awsome beauty of this track! every few weeks i move the hills, mounds, obstacles around making it a new track to race even though the layout is the same. i will be changing that too as soon as the pit lane option shows up on my door step.
this weekend i move the boxes underneath my track to create elevated/banked turns! it's really fun. i'v taken alot of pictures to show how well it works for both racers and overlands
well, without further ado...her is my rcp track gallery

i'm seriously entertaining the idea of asking any local z racers to come over when scheduled as we are looking for some new competition my cousin keeps beating me and i sometimes beat my brother... i need someone else to challenge for the lower finishes

i got my pit lane kit in the mail so we decided to completely change my track layout today. it's now much larger but also more fun!
i'll have some pics up tomorrow when there is more light... in the mean time i got a few track video's. you can see today's action here , look for the title's with 04.03.04 in them. i will also try to get some video of my f1's inaction as well as my new rolling brick (mercedes benz g55 amg).

ok, i got up early this morning and tried out a crude mini-z cam it was not easy to say the least to control the z with a camera taped to it. you'll see more than a few rollovers
trip around the track on the diablo after one too many rollovers, i just parked it
a trip around the track on the mercedes g55 this one was not easy to control...

Very nice track setup from the pic 0776 below. I remembered you said that is 1 Wide Oval and 1 Wide L right. Do you have the Length ' and Width ' ?
Thanks.

Tag? More like destruction derby. What kind of video setup are you using? What are you using to take the videos, and what video edting software are you using?

i use a canon powershot a70 camera with a 256md cfc card on the mdeium setting for video resolution. i upload/edit/save files in microsoft movie maker which comes with winxp. these last 2 seems to be worse in terms of clarity and i can't figure out why as i thought i did everything the same way.... i really don't know much more than opening them up and saving them (video files).

The first rule for playing "tag".
When you tag someone, they're IT!
You don't have to keep tagging them. LOL
Tag, you're it.
tag, you're it.
tag, you're it.
Tag, tag, tag, ,tag, tag...
I'd re-title it to "A Game of Tag(team)"
Great footage.
