Timber Rattler

History

Inspired by a matchbox cart track, once completed the track had a serpentine shape to it, thus the timber rattler was born.

Description

A speedster circuit of 11 corners and two long straights on wooden plank surface, delimited by low concrete walls. The track is surrounded with high trees and woodland.

The track starts with a medium straight ending in a 90° left corner. A shorter straight after that ends in another left 90°, followed by the longest straight, this one also ending in the last of the 90° left corners.

After a short stretch, a hairpin bend of about 190°, also left, is quickly followed by a right 100° corner. Then comes the second longest straight, ending first in a smooth 90° right turn and then a sharp 135° right turn. This is very quickly followed by a wide chicane and another sharp 135° right corner.

A wide 180° left turn follows a short straight and finally a smooth 45° left turn leads over the finish line.

A completion of two laps are required for this race.

Tips

  • Don’t run into walls.
  • Ponies ‘sit’ on the front of the speedster. Disable AO while pulling the speedster. A driver is not required, and does not affect the speed of the cart.
  • The speedster has three speeds (trot, canter & gallop). The race is best run in gallop. Get into gallop by pressing PageUp twice before crossing the start line and keep at this speed for the entire run.
