Sounds like it's coming along very nicely. Might I suggest you use half inch pipe insulation for the track?

no no no look at the second pic thats what the track will look like much nicer than pipe insulation

EDIT: Yes i am going to theme it but that will depend on what time of the year i finish it
Summer: Carnival
Spring: Six Flags (opening season, like a new ride that just opened)
Fall: Halloween *waits till halloween*
Winter: self explanitory
