Andy - that makes sense and will be easy to do. Thanks

Andy - I really appreciate your support and advice. I did search for digital sets but gave up after the first few all said Pre Order. Anyway I've pre ordered one from Scalextric. With regards power - I understand that the Arc Pro will need 2 power packs (my circuit will be about 30 metres long) but I am a bit confused about 'jumpers'. What are these jumping from? Do I need a 3rd power source? Please advise. And again, many thanks

Probably not worth sending a picture as I have scribbled all over it as part of my planning. I have also decided to go with your advice and revert to a 2 lane circuit of my own design. I have tried to find an Arc Pro but the only ones I can find are 2nd hand or from e bay. Will new stock be available from Scalextric again?

Thanks for the reply but I'm now confused. I'm using Scalextric plans book issue 10. There are two 4 lane plans for varano and one of them is digital. It show 2 powerbases and lane switching between all 4 lanes. There is no funneling. Why would Scalextric produce a plan that won't work.

I am building a 4 lane layout based on the digital Scalextric plan for circuit of Varano. The plan show a need for 2 off 6 car powerbases (C7042). I want to go for ArcPro - do I need 2 off C8435 units for this and is there any special wiring as I assume that 1 of the units becomes a slave of the other? Finally, when will the ArcPro units be back in stock?

I am currently constructing a 4 lane digital layout based roughly on the Scalextric plan of the circuit of Varano. It shows a requirement for 2 off power bases (C7042). Is this correct and if so is any special wiring involved as presumably one unit becomes a slave of the other? If I was to opt for the alternative ArcPro option would I need 2 off power units (C8435) and again is any special wiring involved to link the two? And finally, when are you expecting ArcPro to be back in stock? Thanks
