Title: Project MX track irrigation Post by: Paul_S on April 13, 2010, 10:44:44 AM Picked up some pipe yesterday. Today we are going to start laying it out on the big track. With the summer coming we are going to try and make sure the track is watered every weekend.

Title: Re: Project MX track irrigation Post by: Paul_S on April 15, 2010, 11:11:01 PM Well, it's about done. We can now water about 75% of the track via high pressure hoses. Now the base is done, in time we can start adding sprinklers etc. Right now it's going to be great to be able to water the track without driving the water truck around too much.

We are using 1-1/2" pipe. We have 3 zones and even running 2 zones together (one with a 243' 1-1/2" fire hose on the end), we get a good volume of water. Being pretty much in the middle, non of the runs are that long. Title: Re: Project MX track irrigation Post by: DALEQUAD on April 19, 2010, 07:51:11 PM :ThumbsUp.gif
