Grand Loop Raceway Park

Track under Construction...

 

Grand Loop Raceway Park
The track is a 64 ft Ninco, running in a counter clockwise direction, and resides in an area that spans 18 ft along the back straight and 14 ft along the front.  The width is 7.5 ft.  The track was designed by Jim Basel aka Zoom Beedo.

Three 4 ft x 7.5 ft sections were built and bolted together to form the table for the original 50 ft 12 x 7.5 ft track.  Extensions were built for both ends in a similar manner and bolted on to accomodate the increased track size. 

Even though I only added about 14 ft of track, it feels much more substantial and flows very well with enough technical turns to keep it interesting.  A couple of the turns can really bite you if you let your focus down.  Good lap times are in the low 6 second range. (no mag Slot.its)


 




A shot of the original 50 ft track.  After running many laps on the new track it was certainly worth the effort to expand it.
