Our Little Playground

[WrenchHead]

Here is a pix of our little off-road track in my freinds back yard. We hacked out of the woods and got 2 loads of dirt delivered. These are pics from a few months ago before the monsoon season began.In the middle of the pic is table top we made from alum. studs and carpet covered plywood. It is curently under 2 feet of water.So no track till next month but we can deal with it.Later,Wrench

Very nice Wrenchhead! I'm looking to so the same thing in my backyard - a small track with a small rock garden and mudpit.. looks good!

Well, when your track floods.........break out the RC boats!!!!

[WrenchHead]

Hey All; Yeh I wish there was enough water to run a boat.It just fill in the low spots,it was all swamp when we started it last year.We were sitting on his back porch after running our trucks cleaning them when he said my back yard would make a great track right.I said Hell Yea!! I think just about anyplace will make a spot to run.The next day he calls and says he has started clearing brush and to come over to help if I want to run on it. We had 2 loads of dirt delivered and had to bring it in the back yard one wheelbarrow at a time. Sucked majorly but it does the trick.He hates having to wait 2 weeks to run and pay $25 to run at our local track.He races but he is not a racer.It has only been flooded for a month or so, we have been running on construction sites and other open areas lately.Thanks Guys.Later,Wrench.

When it floods, bring out the new E-Maxx!

[mxnoah418]

dude all you need to do is rent a bobcat and slope all the land just a tiny bit and then make a small retaining pond!
then you got your problem solved
noah

how much time do you have in the track. Its nice

[WrenchHead]

Thanks guys we like it even if it swells up to no use. It will drain sooner or later. Also it is so F'in hot here this time of year i am glad it is a pond. So not to big aproblem. There was onlt 2 of us and it took 2 loads of dirt and 2 weekends to spread it 2 wheelbarrows full at a time. 1 trip to HD for boards and ther is is. We run everything from mini's amd micro's to 1/8 buggies.We are in Sunny Southwest Florids. Below Tampa by a few hours.L8R,Wrench.
