Switching from plastic to wood for our Caledonia club.The track is named after a track that was located south of Hamilton Ontario near the small town of Javis.It had quite a history but faded out after Mosport was opened.I hope to have it up and running by the end of the month.

Nice track in a very comfortable room! Scenery sets a nice tone, not too much to distract from the track or make it look crowded.

How high is the table? Overall track dimensions? Where are your driver stations?

JT the track is 27 in. high,on 16x8 L shape.The drivers stations are on the main straight.I'm still doing scenery work and may add a couple of small grand stands.The landscape is suppose to to look like the area from the tracks namesake which was on the north shore of lake Erie.The real track was old school with hay bails on the corners to stop cars from going into the sand dunes.
