Interesting idea. I can't afford the parts or have the space to make it work, but I like the idea. Thanks for the comment.

LOL! Thanks for the commment. 👍

Hi Mark, thanks for the nice comment. The parts list is: standard straight 26 (lane changes = 2 straights) 1/3 straight 2 1/4 straight 2 Power terminal 1 1/30 curve 8 (could be 6 - 1/30 & 19 - 1/60 but the list is what I had) 1/60 curve 18 2/30 (banked or not) 6 4/15 curve 2 (I got these at CincySlots, they sell single track pc. A pkg is 12 pc) Have fun. 👍

Thanks & Have fun.

Thanks. It was fun.

Digital slotcar tracks allow you to set up cars to run by themselves, ghost cars they are usually called. They can change lanes randomly or you can cover the sensor and make them stay in one lane. They only go the speed you set for them. Two cars were being controlled by wireless controllers, the rest were "ghost cars" in the video. Analog slotcar tracks allow only one car per lane - 2 cars on a 2 lane track with each bound to their lane. With Carrera digital you can race up to 6 controlled cars and 2 ghost cars at once on a 2 lane track with cars free to change lanes for passing or blocking. Thanks for watching.

@@zoskinso3420 Cool

Hope it works for you. 👍

Thanks and you're welcome. It's all part of the fun for me. 👍

😄 Thanks for the comment.

Nice! Thanks for commenting. Have fun.

😁👍

Thanks for your question. The banked curves are 2/30. The size is 16 feet 6 inches x 6 feet 9 inches. The track length is 84 feet. 👍

Hi Nick. I think that track inventory will build all of these layouts. Adding 2 more 1/4 straights (4 total) should build the layouts thru #18. CarreraSlots.com, LEB Hobbies and Cincyslots.com are a good source for parts. CincySlots sells single pieces, handy because I didn't want to pay for 12 - 4/15 pc when I wanted 4. Thanks for the nice comment. Good luck with the layout and Have Fun.

I just ordered some various tracks from LEB. I’ve used them before, great to do business with.

Thanks for watching & commenting. It has been a fun layout. 😊

The '4' lane esses is the idea I designed the layout around. It's been fun. Thanks for watching & commenting. 👍

I have 8 or 9 GT3 cars that take turns being my 'favorite', X-Bow is one of them. Right now it's the yellow C8.R (awesome headlights) & #51 488 Ferrari. Tail lights on the X-Bow are weak only real gripe. Thanks for commenting.

@@zoskinso3420 My XBOW has the same issue with the weak tail lights.

This one is 17'-11" x 6'-7". I've posted 6 close to that size but maybe 5 or 6 inches bigger. Layouts are #'s 1, 6, 18, 25, 29, and 35. Good luck.

1/32 scale. Break em out see if they still work. 😉

Thanks 👍😊

Thanks for the nice comment. 👍

😊 Thanks. I made the supports mostly from scrap MDF I had. Sorry, I don't sell them. Thanks for the comment.

@@zoskinso3420 terrific! 👏👍

Thanks 👍

Thanks. I'll try. 😊

Thanks 😊

You're welcome. Thank you for the nice comment.

Thank you.

Thanks anton, I think basic Carrera track is the same for digital and evolution, I don't know of cheaper compatable track parts. Usually cheaper to find expansion packs that fit your needs and add single pieces as needed to complete layout. I designed several layouts and made an inventory of what I needed and shopped for deals when I started.

@@zoskinso3420 thank you for your thoughts. I guess it's good to buy little by little, depending on how much money I can save. I should probably also look for used tracks. however, I am a rather poor student 😺

everything around the track will also be important to me. well youtube.com/@BoonesSlotCarGarage is a great help too 🌳🌲⛰️🏎️🚙🛣️💕

@@antonmilius5197 Boone is an artist & wonderful teacher, Marty Ford, MP slots & Dave Kennedy @ slot car news are informative slotcar stuff too. Check out Anthony Ramsey for a nice landscaped layout and some DIY tips. Cincyslots.com a great resourse for track, cars etc.

👍 Thanks for commenting.

Lol. 💯% Right! These ARE fun toys. However: Many race circuits have many turns and elevation changes (overpasses, not so much). I do enjoy these toys, they are fun. Not trying to "impress" anyone, simply sharing how I have fun with slotcars. Thanks for the comment & watching. 👍

Thank you. 👍

Thanks ☝

Thank you very much. It's fun driving, racing and sharing the different layouts i make. 🙂

Hi, I use the 'Carrera Track Planner' a free app. Took a minute to figure out but it works. Thanks for your question. Many layout ideas can be found here: www.smartrace.de/en/track-layout-database/

@@zoskinso3420 Thanks, you should do a video about Carrera Track Planner how to use it

@@yvesmayer3473 Lol. I thought about it but do not know how to produce it. 😁 If you try to use it I may be able to answer questions. 👍

Thanks, it's been a blast to drive.

Hi Suzukii, I make all my track supports out of MDF (fiberboard), scrap wood and styrofoam. You can see them in my video 'Carrera track shoulders, mods, jumpers' starting @ 2:01. There are several track design apps available. I use a free app I downloaded, Carrera Track Planner, it is not great but does work for my needs. Also visit the SmartRace website, at the bottom of the page is a link to many track design ideas. SmartRace is a race and timing management app (about $12.00) I highly recommend for Carrera. Thanks for watching & commenting.

Thanks for commenting. Have fun. 😊

Thank you.

Thank you. I've been having fun with this layout. 👍

Thank you. I think you will love it.👍

Thanks so much. I usually imagine layouts and how they fit in my space, sometimes make a sketch of the idea. Then I use the 'Carrera Track Planner' to adjust the layout to make the ends meet.

Rob, thanks. All but one car were autonomous. Track does not stop the race when a car deslots, but with the 'SmartRace' app I use, with your phone you can start & stop the race remotely.

Thanks for the comment. 👍😊 It was fun.

Hi Andrew, Carrera guardrails snap into either the track or track shoulders. Carrera borders, while necessary for the best racing experience, are expensive so all of mine are homemade. I make them from MDF and build guardrails that I screw or glue to the shoulder pieces. I make wire 'hooks' to secure them to the track.

HI, thanks for watching. I've bought from: Carreraslots.com - good inventory, good prices, some single pieces available, must pay shipping Lebhobbies.com - as above but free shipping over $100. Cincyslots.com - bought cars & single track pieces here. Ebay. com & Amazon.com. Some good deals sometimes found here.
