Would be nice to have a rear facing camera angle to see the other smart's driving hard through such nice road.
But I did do the rear facing camera. Up to the Palomar Observatory, then back down the east grade. Coming soon!

I may go either HO or N depending on how I'd like my setup...

It's cool how you made those Z scales look so big!
