I'm preparing a Digital Routed Wood track inspired by Spa-Francorchamps
The track is using the BLST (Best Lane Slot Track) concept developped by David Caille (sillage.racing.free.fr). It contains 14 lane changers each automaticaly managed by its own electronic taking care to give a chance to second car to pass (outside the best lane) the first one when behind and providing an anti-colision mechanism to offer a car the chance to come back on the best lane.
The Digital system that will be used is the Wireless "Scorpius" developped by Australian friend Rick (alias Injectorman on Slotforum). Scorpius will be in charge of only one lane changer, the 15th, the one to enter the pitlane. It will of course also take care to manage up to 16 cars (but I will most probably limit myself to 8) and lap counting.
The track has been designed on CAD/CAM software The CAD/CAM file was used as input on a numerical router to create the 10 pieces that are making the track. The track is 4,8m x 2,0m. If you consider the nearly straight (parabolic) line (of the best lane in red) going from La Source up to Rivage, it measures nearly 6m
