LOL, cool.
My scalextrics is set up in the loft, but its pretty dark up there (no proper lighting, just a host of desk lamps) and it gets seriously hot up there this time of year. I think I've got a track which is similar in length to that (maybe a tad longer, it folds in on itself a bit) By the way, since this is walking a fine line between being in this forum, and being in Armchair Enthusiast can we keep it specifically to the tracks or it'll have to move to AE

Quick map of my layout..
I think its quite cool, the main straight's a couple of metres long, which isn't bad for a scalextrics track, and the rest of the track is pretty technical but still good fun. |

Well, considering you've only got a narrow set options (6 or 7 types of curve, 4 or 5 different straights), probably not worth it!
Unless you mean as though it were a real track

That being said, a famous example of an actual circuit with a crossover is the Suzuka Circuit in Japan (home of the Japanese Grand Prix):  Since Suzaka is owned by Honda, I would speculate that the crossover may be to assure an equal number of left and right turns for corporate vehicle test purposes. Or maybe just because it is - Ah so, cool! I sure do like it!Finally: My custom routed wood, 75 foot per lap, slot track from the '60's. I really miss the old track!
