Scored some grass

Got a little time today and had to get to laying down the grass covering. I think it looks pretty good.

It's kinda plain right now, as I have very little in the way of decor. I like the color, however. It's darker than I was expecting, which is good for a background.

It went on pretty fast. I decided beforehand I was going to lay the track flat for now, and it'll still be plenty fun for racing. I have a few pals coming over next week to do some racing, so we'll see what happens. I need to get the attic cleanup up before that, though.

Ran out of grass. I have to go see the guy.

I also need to go back to the hardware store and pick up another roll. I got all the way across the back with two rolls, but will need another one for the extensions, which will be put in this week.

There's a lot of green on the backstretch.

Pros: Way quieter than running on raw wood. I'm going to test it tonight, but I think I'll be able to race with my two year old downstairs sleeping. Also nice color contrast. The weird thing is, I know what it is, and I know it's not ultimately what I want, but I'm actually cool with doing this as a stepping stone to other things. The big question is how long can I go before I tire of it?

It does look damn good though. Gives good car definition, and even works with the gray track.

Cool! Revitalized!
