Once Tony decided that a having a track was more important than keeping his car indoors he purchased a continuous rail track kit routed out of PVC with the rail already installed. All he had to do was build a rock solid base, complete the cabinetry and trim, finish the wiring circuitry, install an infield, and trim out the whole racing area and he’d be ready for action. Or so he thought.

The unstable nature of PVC quickly produced rail that wasn’t secure for high down force racing. Worse, a single power tap didn’t carry enough current for cars fast enough to pull up the rails in the first place. Just the kind of cars Tony was so eagerly looking forward to racing himself. Ouch!

But Tony was unwavering in his determination to achieve a zero maintenance track setup. He diligently installed new track rail permanently with epoxy, and he rewired the entire track while adding a second power tap. The final touch was meticulously hand-grinding the rail to his very own exacting standards. By now Tony intimately knew every inch of his track because he’d built it all himself in the end. Speed Merchants was pleased to provide all the amp sucking, magnetic down force, Neo firepower to the party as Ruiz Raceway emerged victorious in its baptism of fire!
