Back at it the past two days.. the blade is not ideal for the rough stuff, but I made do as best I could..
Been leaving piles where jumps are going, wether doubles, tabletops, landers only (the big wooden 3’x10’ launch ramp), and step up’s.. I “roughed in” one; the small 2’x10/12’ step up at the beginning of the back straightaway.. One old man, and a dilapidated rock rake is no dammit bueno, but it’s there, and roughly what I’m looking for to not throw rods down that long mammerjammer.. then a small set of doubles on the far left outside turn (all the rest are just piles until I grab that super stellar rake, and wait for the rain to do some work for me until I roll it in).. Same with the rest. Then a huuuuuuge 10’ wide 3’ high massive lander for the wooden launch ramp.. Following that is a medium size table top to break it up some.. I’ll toss ina few small rollers, and likely some whoops after that.. Would love to have enough surplus dirt for a decent hip jump in the final turn before coming around the far side, and back into the step up, and on down the massive straight again.. That will be a job for the front end loader on the Kubota.. then it’ll all get run in likely with one of my S10’s, and some UN-fuq’n the close section just to the right of the driver stand/deck where the blade was throwing a fit, and I got myself in a little trouble.. Not a big deal-and I’ll get it sorted. Next will be almost 1000ft of 4” corrugated drain pipe, and 200ish 12” spikes, and the accompanying 1.5” fender washers to securely locate the pipe, and have it last a hot minute at least..
Really deceptive as far as the size of my jumps, and piles, but they’re gonna be perfect for a fairly fast pace track, with JUST enough technical shiit to keep things interesting.. did a lot of playing with the grade all over, and manipulated the natural ravine where water runoff takes place when there’s some weather. Should not be too bad, and dry up quick after, without rutting lanes up too bad.. I can always build doubles over it if need be, or some simple 10’ wide wooden bridges..
These jumps LOOK tiny, but I can assure you they are not, and the camera is playing tricks..Also seriously considering a 12’ lane for that back straight as opposed to the 10’ stuff everywhere else..
Likely gonna be a small table top here on the other side of the tree line.
The far left interruption I’m thinking some small dubs… Almost two rollers close together..
On THIS side of the tree line will be the lander for the massive 10’x3’ launch ramp. There will be a fair amount of work to it with the rake, it’ll also be about a foot taller, and likely moved back about 4’ from where it ended up..
Pay no attention to the shape of the pile in the photo..

This will be two lanes side by side.
The end of this straight will actually not go to the end, and will be a 180deg chicane to come back and hit the massive launch ramp. Just past and perpendicular to that will be another 180ish chicane, or VERY short “U”, where I’d love to see a hip jump to lead back across the front of
@Xraycer ‘s “free candy shack”, and then an immediate left for the completed lap, and back over the step up, and on down the back straightaway..
Back straight beginning roughed in step up..
