Been a hot minute, and absolutely SLAMMED with work from about every possible direction-but did manage to get a couple yards of clay for one of my eleventeen little projects over here at the Littlemotor compound…🫣

More to follow once I can get a decent break from being 173.2F here in central NC every damned day.. 😩🤮
Thats awesome you got clay!! Much better than loose dirt.

Yea, my track has piles of dirt everywhere (from weeding/sweeping) cuz I try to work on it and then it's 150° out or raining. Or work and life getting in the way. AND this BS Canadian fire smoke blanketing our area today!! It stanks!! I just wanna play on my track!!!

Well, welcome back!!
Was wondering about you and "The Compound" when a "Backyard Track" thread popped up a bit ago.
All well I hope?

Yeah buddy-livin’ the dream as they say.. 😂
Been doing build after build, after build.. Finally was able to knock out a few of my own here over the past week or two, and (5) more staged & in line on the bench as we speak.. Antsy to get the “proving grounds” back whipped into proper shape 😎..
Could always be worse brotha, just never enough hours in the day anymore.. 🤷🏻‍♂️😅

Yeah-the clay was an absolute MUST; no other way to do it imo, and being I’m the ONLY RC nerd redneck in the state without clay….well I will sleep much better at night now.. 😅

It’s crazy how much different the piles look in photo’s, and while they’re all varying shades-nothing is just “dirt”.. It looks GORGEOUS after it rains, and I’m looking forward to getting the skidsteer out here..

Haven’t seen the smoke (aside from my Pit Barrel Cooker 🤤) down here man-that’s nuts! 😳
