Cool ideas. For those interested in distances per lane, I got them here: #1 (54'11" vs 54'10") #2 (61' vs 60'10") #3 (55'10 vs 57'8") #4(58'10 vs 60'9") #5(51'7" vs 53'6") #6 (58'5" vs 60'3") #7 (54'1" vs 56') #8 (58'7" vs 58'5") #9 (63'5" vs 63'7") If you do not have the digital system I highly recommend tracks 2, 8, and 9 due to how close lanes are, otherwise it would make it quite unfair to the racer on the exterior lanes. As example, track #4 has a difference between lanes of almost 2 feet! (close to 60cms). That's an extra 19'2" (6 meters) if you have a 10 lap race!

Wow. If you don't mind, we're new to this. What are you using for the track supports in the center of some of the elevated track sections? Is there an app for the Carrera track designs? Thanks.
@zoskinso3420 Жыл бұрын
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 these good ideas. Can you tell me if it would be worthwhile to buy a cheaper 1/24 digital track and expand it with a cheaper Evolution track?
@zoskinso3420 Жыл бұрын
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 doing this. I bought a D132 set during the Covid lockdowns but never had the room to keep a track up any longer than a few days. I now have the room for a permanent setup with limits but can build any of the plans you showed and I am stoked! Thank you su much, Im sure I am not the only grateful viewer. You replied to a comment indicating the track inventory. Did you build all those layouts with that inventory or was it for one plan in particular? Thanks in advance. - Nick
@zoskinso34207 ай бұрын
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.

@zoskinso34203 жыл бұрын
Layouts should work fine. Carrera Digital & analog tracks (132/124) are the same, difference is in control box and cars. Digital cars work on either, analog only work with analog control box. Old track looks compatable with newer track but I can't say for sure.

Chief, Short answer is about $750 total to build these layouts. I started with a set w/digital controllers on sale for $269. Once I knew I liked it I designed a few tracks and figured out what I needed to build them and bought packaged parts & individual as needed. A consideration is if a great deal can be found (as I did) buy 2 sets (I didn't). 4 cars, 4 controllers, backup power terminal and power pack, less track to add. Hope that helps.
