Rough draft....the bridge idea is still in the works. I think I got it figured out though. Need 50 more feet of tubing and some more spikes. Gonna spend entire day tomorrow on it, so we'll see how the progress goes. 😁✌️

Ramp and jump through it
Fire ring
Even better than a fire pit 😁 🤪
Or, on a straightaway with no jumps. Hammer the trigger and drive right through a bed of burning embers!

Man I'm beat. Just now called it a day. Def made good progress today. Just gotta finish relocating the dirt mound to the ramp and other places, finish up some piping, level some areas and put some final touches on. Hopefully it won't rain tomorrow.

The bridge.......sorry guys, but I gave up on that for now. 🤷‍♂️ I was trying to work with materials I already had and it just wasn't coming out to my liking. I might try again at a later date.

For now, I built a table......I mean a tunnel of sorts. 😂 I know it's looks stoopid, but I'm gonna pretty it up, don't worry. 🤗 Little taller than I wanted, but eff it. It's like a funnel.....only 4' wide going in and out, so makes it a challenge. It's portable so if I don't like it, I can just remove it.

Here's a few progress pics from today......

Your wife is going to be so pi$$*d when she finds the living room coffee table being used as a tunnel!

Do you stand on that picnic bench when you're running the track?
Nah, that thing isn't very stable. It is cool though as it turns into a bench.

I am planning on building some kind of stand eventually. For now I'll move my current "stand" (portable scaffolding type thingy) and the umbrella over to where the picnic table is.
