What a fun project this is. I never know who's going to win, and the scoring system is set up to make sure there are plenty of possibilities of high and low total and average (AVE) scores. The AVEs will be used when we get to the playoffs! Here's the latest video.

Here's the first race, if you missed it. After this, I decided to create the scenic background, rather than keep my build a set around it.
Here's a couple pics of the Moon Room just before the launch of this project. I put this wallpaper up over 40 years ago. It's the only wall paper work I've ever done. It's holding nicely, but has some new screw and tac holes in it. There are 192 marbles ready to race over the next 2 years.
I had to add guard rails to the track shortly after this pic was taken. The marbles would decide to roll off the table. The rubber bumpers and tacs had to be replace (most of them) with 18 gauge nails. The sounds are not necessarily "pinky pink" but more of a "clink click clink" - love that! I had been working on building this track for 9 months... it's not perfect, but it works. Got a nice shot of my pinky there too!
