maybe use old plumbing tubes (like huge huge huge ones) so you can use less dirt.

Find an operator that's good and rides also... This makes a HUGE difference, trust me..... And I wouldn't advise the logs, cars, etc. If you ever go to change the track, you have that mess to contend with...

what i did with my track was start with an empty pasture bushogged and then i took a disc and disc the entire layout of the track. then i took a box blade and scraped where i had disced. about three times over. then took the front end loader and piled all the dirt i had scraped. then disc the the parts of the track that where unlevel and left the flat parts of the track alone to help with water drainage then re scraped what i had disc and i had one steep hill that i kept discing and scraping just to get dirt. this gave me 4 piles of dirt that i would say were about 4-3 truck loads a peice. then just used the from end loader to make jumps. i have pics of before the jumps came i dont have any pics of the track after the jumps were there.
