Default Re: Indy Truck Show 2011

Willy, here's in one supplier of the rubber material for possible use as the "road". There are several suppliers that I searched, but as noted this is just one of them. The supplier has the material in 1/8 inch thick material, which I think is about 3.5 mm. Using a thinner material may allow for easier storage and transport as well as a smaller edge for the truck to pass over if they get off the roadway. Joining the material would have to be reviewed as we would want something that easily comes apart, possibly "blue painter's tape" on the underside of the material. Making curves would have to be thought out as more material would be needed, but again this is just thought and as way to "rasie the bar" improve the overall layout and operation of the city. Your thoughts?

Thank you,

Jim
