Has anyone ever made any scale models of BMX tracks (think model railroad-style with little trees and bushes, etc.)? I think it would be kinda cool to see some of the old-school tracks in 3D, especially if they are famous or now gone. As a Midwest guy like me who never saw the SoCal tracks for real BITD, I have a hard time picturing what some were really like just looking at photos.

i imagine some of those old school cali tracks like corona would take quite a bit of clay.
