Track Progress w/ Pics

[porsche917]

I worked on the track today and cleaned up under the track, moved everything to the yellow shelves and put up the track table boarder boards. They still need to be painted but I wanted to mount them first to make sure they would all fit correctly. I also wanted to see what would need to be done to build the lockable door on the power supply.

Brian – I moved all of your landscaping supplies to the yellow shelves with everything else.

I hope to have all of the sub-terrain painted by next Saturday so we can begin to put down the first coats of grass.

We have only four more Saturdays before the grand opening. That is a lot of work in very little time.

Does anyone have any completed sub-terrain track pictures from last Saturday? I would love to see some.

Marty,

I saw the pegboards installed and also that they were missing in the back of the track. Do we need to buy more or you left it like that so we can go under the track?
I can go to Kings during the week and help paint the surface, just let me know.

We also need to have the flyers finished, the t-shirts ordered and to contact the media/newspapers about the opening ASAP.

Here is what I remember that needs to be done; please add whatever is missing.

1- Need to trim the terrain around turn T5, T6, T7, T8.
2- Paint terrain surface.
3- Apply grass.
4- Finish pond.
5 – Additional landscaping (Marty and Brian need to itemize it).
6- Fabricate door and back for power supply cabinet.
7 – Paint the pegboard and track sides.
8- Cover the electric socket and cover the extension cords going to the track
9A – Confirm with Kings the discount rates discussed on Aug 21 — needed to finish the flyer
9- Finish flyer and distribute it
10- Order T-shirts
11- Create Banner with 2010 design for back wall
12 – Artwork/posters for back wall
13- Track rules need to be created and printed on a poster for the back wall
14- Contact media about the opening
15- See that the walls are installed
16- See that the back room is cleaned
17- See that the store has merchandise
18- TV needs to be fastened
19- Store clerks need to be trained
20- Track computer needs to be setup for remote access
21 – Speakers need to be installed (Y splitter for earphones needed)
22- Track turn names
23- Website layout + content

Dang Ary… I didn’t have you pegged as a “list guy”! 😉

I have pics still in the camera. Will upload tonite. (Would have done yesterday, but the “honey-do” list was quite long… plus the Turkish Hacker nonsense on my SCDimensions site…. plus having to post a bunch of product spec sheet corrections to the SCXWW site… plus…) 😯

On a positive note: It looks like I’m available until ~2:00 next week, so I can get there at opening time to help finalize some of these things on the track.
