I realized that it was the same lane in both directions, but any kind of barrier would still have to let the blue lane pass through with out obstructing it's path in either direction.  What about something that retains it's shape but was still flexible?  If you put the posts on the ends far enough apart you might be able to make it work by letting it flex a little if need be with out deslotting the car.

I think one thing that would help minimize the deslots would to do some leveling on the track joint seen at the very bottom of the picture.   Either fill, sand and paint or just sand and paint.  Any filler would be easily separated if the track ever needs to come apart.  Maybe the joint before the tee could also get some attention.

Just my humble opinion

I may try to make it but I don't need a ride

Anyone else having trouble with the link?  I end up in www limbo land

George- This is a separate series from the proposed series at BSCC and has separate rules.  The Fly class at BSCC has been pushed back to next summer so people only have to worry about preparing one car for racing at BSCC this winter which is going to be the SCX GT cars

I guess what I'm trying to say is that 1950-1969 is too big of a spread, the cars changed dramatically during that period.  The change started with the rear engine revolution, but tire size didn't catch up until the mid 60's along with the increase in engine displacement from 1.5 to 3.0 liters.  Of course, limiting the the year range eliminates my choice of car, but I think it would be for the betterment of the series.  It is your series and I will leave you with the decision.

I'm leaning toward the 1967 AAR Eagle T1G by Scalextric.  It seems to fit the criteria except for the width of tires which look wider than Ninco classics.  What's the ruling on this Monte.  18k  motor-check, pre 1969- check, beautiful- check
