A couple of the gents on SCI, suggested to use skid marks for marking lane changes. It works well! I just used a Sharpie felt tip pen to test and I like the results. Paint either brushed or airbrushed would look better. Thanks MrFlippant and racerx for the idea and a reminder.

Re: Skid marks to denote lane changes.
Paul, I think that's a good idea, the arrows don't look that nice.
there could be other ways too, a sign in the side of the road like they have today on real tacks with 50, 100, 150, etc. (distance to the corner)
@ the end it is only something to tell the new guys I don't see the marks on my track I know where it is.
what about your cars, they need paint too...................

Re: Skid marks to denote lane changes.
That's a cool idea, I had never thought of distance markers to the corner. That's a great idea! Yeah I was thinking about painting the cars, but I'm having too much fun building the tracks and driving the cars!

With a gray track surface a pencil rubbed on looks good I think.
