I have heard that roofing felt (sometimes called tar paper) works really well.
Personally, I just used my two car garage floor. Just the right size. I scrubbed the floor with simple green then let it dry. Lots of traction (even on those garage floor type surfaces).
We then layed out a track with garden hoses, added a few construction cones (small ones) for obstacles, and raced for hours and hours.
Great winter fun !

i might make a miniz track on plywood covered in carpet then nail small pices of foam pipe insulater for the borders of the track. You put a nail in about ever foot the place the foam over the nails. Carpet gives the best traction for the mini z and it is easyest to cotrol on carpet. Also if you hit the foam it wont damage the car
