I have been trying to build my local track using the tutorials and guides but just cant seem to get it right. At this point, I have given up hope of ever personally completing the track, let alone to the standards I was hoping for. I am hoping that a more experienced builder would be interested in helping me out. I can provide all of the files that I have (not much to speak of) along with any pictures, video, measurements, textures, or scenery requested.
Please contact me if you have any interest in building this tight 1/3 mile or if you would like any more information about the Purdue Grand Prix.
Thanks in advance!

i think it's a good track ;D
i could help you building it. i make a few 3ds max tutorials for how to make tracks for krp and maybe this helps you. when you want to work with btb ask marco dakic,andi_stengel or maybe aritz.
looks a good track, i think it would be nice to have a shorter track in krp
Thank you all for your interest! I'll upload my progress so far when I get back to my desktop from winter break (1/6/12).
I had originally attempted going the BTB route, but the trial has expired since I started. Today I restarted in 3DS Max, but I am having a hard time finding a good tutorial for a beginner to track building. I attached a correctly sized track in 3DS in-case anyone wants to play around with it. I will try to complete the mesh in the next week.

Thanks Lauzzzn! I followed your tutorial, but I can't figure out the lofting step. The track keeps coming out in a weird shape (see image). Any ideas? I attached the 3DS file with the centerline in case that may help.

you sized it and lofted the sized one that doesnt work you have to make a new centerline.
but i take a look at your file.
