We spent a long time working on this one. I never posted this track on here to share with you all, but I thought I would now. Hope you all enjoy it.

For the first few minutes, I was like "sure, it's big, but I don't see how that'd be very fun to play with, since the karts aren't motori--HOLY CRAP THEY ARE!!!"  Awesome job, man. All the moving parts on the track itself seem to be working well. I really liked seeing two or more karts in a line, zippin' around the corners and such. Dare I ask how many times a kart would fly off the track when it's at its furthest away from where you're standing? |

Fantastic work here man. I don't have much expertise in K'NEX but this is absolutely phenomenal, I can only imagine the countless hours building and designing it straight from the games itself. How much did you spend on all materials? And how many hours were put into creating/designing it? Amazing job. Next time you attempt one I suggest a Donkey Kong track.

I started collecting these in 2011 and I bought the whole series that year, the next year (this is a true story) K'NEX sent me the whole 2012 set and ask if I would build a track using all of the pieces. Needless to say I did, but that gave me over $600 of free sets in 2012. Last year they just released 1 Mario Kart set so really I don't have as much into it as it looks like. As far as time goes, it took a long time to build it and make it good enough for the cars to race on it. If you add in all of the sets that are placed around the track like Bowser's Castle and the Ghost House, that adds a lot more money to the amount though. We just finished making a Koopa Troopa racetrack, but I agree about a DK track. I think that might be my next one. Here is a look at my new Koopa Troopa track.... |
