Carrera on Scalextric


Recommended Posts

Right, so I have a couple analogue Carrera brand cars (A Ford Capri and a Ferrari FXX Evo), and they run on my analogue Scalextric track; but when I try to use ARC, it doesn't seem to pickup my car to count laps or register that their pitting. Does anyone have any experience or any way to fix this?

Hi Riverroy12 - welcome to the forum!

 

I'm guessing you're using the replacement red 'shallow' guide keel? If so, the ARC sensors have problems with any guide that isn't black. I've had luck with painting the sides of the red guide keel with a quality black permanent marker pen (eg Sharpie). Or you can use the BRM S-126 Guide Blade Carrera (shallow blade) which is a direct replacement for the red version, but made from black plastic. The Carrera Evolution cars should then work perfectly with ARC One, ARC Air or the analogue mode in ARC Pro.

 

I hope that helps.
