Question...are the grooves in the bottom of the longer runs merely decorative, or do they serve some functional purpose?
Hi Art ,
That is really nice. Wish we cold hear the sound track to it. What is the time difference average one might expect over a series of ten races? Is it + or- 1 second, closer, or a wider spread?
Does one side prove to be the "Dealers Choice"? If we race can I wax my side?
Hi Art ,Waxing optional.
It took the kids about ... hmmm ... 15 minutes to figure out that the Walnut track ran faster than the Ash. Not by a ton, but a little. I think it must have a few angles that are fractionally sharper.
You want to hear it? Just for you, Shaz...

Hmm, definitely not a sound stage, nor a professional camera. The bell is louder in real life, and the rattle of wood is quieter. I think it's bouncing off the corner at us.

That's neat! I loved those things when I was a kid!
