brian, its a common mistake your making, radius is HALF the distance across the turn, so 3 feet would be and 18 inch radius so no and as for your second question, you can buy track piece by piece from various manufactureres, but you will get better operation by using flex-track, it comes in 3 foot pieces and you bend it to the size turn you want, it can also be used for straights. if you plan on using this invest a few bucks in a good pair of rail cutters so you can cut the 3 foot length to the size you need
