    Awesome! This track is amazing for a buggy like the Hosi Mini-B :) A bit too small for bigger buggies I think.

      @@rcprinter Yes, I perfectly understand how long physical work takes.
      I think some turns are too steep and a fast buggy will be cramped in them. Perhaps for fast models, a track design with a perimeter road and only 4 corners is more suitable.

      @@bwbccreativepromotions5116 Thanks for the kudos on the track and that's some good feedback on the ride height. I think I have the springs set-up at their max so could definitely use some softening. I also just added sway bars. I'm currently building the 3dsets buggy as well and I have just bought a set of soft jconcepts flip outs for it so I might be able to give those a shot too as well and see how they handle.

      The soft springs on the rear should soften it but lowering with say 30wt associated oil rear also a softer compound tyres on the rear and 35 front . I printed the car myself it handles great . I'm about to give it go racing it .... Great videos and really great track going to make one myself .

    That's a nice track. Built a similar one and it's great for 1/14 scale buggy / short course (LC racing). Looks like your driving skills already improved quite a bit after a few laps. Still a bit oversteering. But that wltoys transmitter is pretty shitty.
