The past month has not seen a huge amount of progress on the track front, primarily due to a 2-week vacation at the parents-in-law with the traditional planning stress before a large vacation.
Added to the fact that I am still learning and that takes time, too, makes it enjoyable to notice that the track project *has* progressed at all. I have made wooden edges for the two halves, primed everything in black and begun looking at the spaces. One of the things to note is that although the first two spray paints you have used from a specific brand have proved to be 'foam-safe' it does not imply that the third is, too. Unluckily, the third paint was the one where I felt safe enough to spray on directly without testing first. The result was a few extra days of work to repair the damage 
I am not sure how it will turn out with spaces cut out of foamboard and glued to the track, so for now, I am just using stickytack so I get an idea. Hopefully it will turn out ok, although the corners may be bit hard. Luckily, I have foamboard in the right width for the straights, so those are possible to do without too much fuss.
Here is a picture of how it looks currently, I have finished the first straight and begun working on the first corner:
