Hey all,
My friend and I just got new cars and have been enjoying driving them around the lots in our area, however we are really intrested in starting to race them and wanted to set up a track in a local parking lot. Whats the best way to markout a track in a parking lot?

That 3" corrugated drain pipe works well. It gives if hit and it's easy to make turns since it if very flexible. Since if rolls up it is also easy to put away.

You can also just use cones and snap chalk lines.

We use 4" fire hose. we got the hose from a building that was putting in new hoses, and throwing the old hose away.
see if you can get your hands on some. Its easy to roll up.
It wont move as much as the plastic in the last post, and if you hit it, it usually stops the car with no damage. or you might even go over it without wrecking.
We painted it with flouresant paint so you can see it.
