Hi guys, so for a while now I wanted to set up some sort of wall around our local oval track to practice some rear clipping points/wall rubbing. In the past we have brought out big pieces of wood but it's not that fun to hit them because you hit them hard once and they break. I really would ideally like to get some water barriers like these:

But they are just so expensive, even to rent them out. Then I though of maybe something like you see at shopping cart enclosures. The blue ones in this pic: http://www.mccuecorp.com/sites/default/files/page_images/mccue-product-categories-cartcorral.jpg?
Does anyone on here maybe know the kind of places you can go to get something like this used? Maybe ones that have been damaged? Or if anyone else has ever set up their own walls, what did you use? Ideas? Suggestions?

usually construction places will auction off all unneeded equipment once they are either going out of business or have new supplies. Look at that

Haybales work fine though

Thats a good idea. And yeah, haybales might work but I don't know how we would get them out there.

You could try a military surplus store and plant landmines around the track.

I thought drifting was about looking cool, not running in to stuff.
I'm so confused.
Can we get BH in here to sort things out?

I don't want to run in to stuff, just have some fun scarping walls. It would also be good practice for rear clipping points. Plus we drift there way too much, it got old a while ago, looking for new ways to make the oval more fun.
