Derby City Speedway Tracks
Derby City Speedway- Carrera
Bluegrass Raceway- Artin
Derby City Live 8- Wood
Here are the 3 tracks that are located in my home. All 3 are in my basement, and as a few of you may know, thats all my basement is.. SLOT CARS. I have recently made a few changes to both the Carrera road coarse, and the Artin oval. You can click on any of these pictures for larger veiws. First here are 2 pictures of how the tracks were before.
This is the Artin track now, changes made to the Artin oval , R1 turns were removed, and R4s were added to the outside. This left me with a little more room on the inside to add a bit of sceenery.

The oval track has been dismantled dur to lack of interest in our local club. It has been replaced with this 4 lane Artin road coarse. We have a great time on this small track with our lower RPM no-mag cars.
Now here is the Carrera road coarse, the R1-R2 turns have been removed from 1 end and replaced with R2-R3 banking.The inner loop was also removed on the back straight and 5 straight sections were added in place that lead into the banks.This gives me a much faster track, and a 22 1/2' straight. Not much changed on the far end except for removing 1 section of straight so it could be added to the exit of the banking. I also gained around 7' of lane length that took me to around 102' on the outside lane. The table size remains the same at 8' x 24'.
