Trouble with yellow flag and the lane change track (going straight)

[John-347493]

So my friends and I raced with my new set last night. Great fun! We crash a lot and are using the yellow flag function in the ARC app. We find that the cars often get stuck on the lane change track as we are not going fast enough. We are not actually trying to change lanes during the caution (yellow flag). We tried increasing the calibration speed, but it didn't seem to increase the mac speed during yellow as I thought it would. Maybe we need to crank it up more? Anyone else have this issue?

First get your cars all serviced up:

Then check connectivity of the track:

I always seal the front tires with black nail polish so the "slide" as well and sanding the rear tires will help as well.

After that I would experiment with increasing power a little.

The great thing about ARC PRO is because you have wireless controllers you can space yourselves around the tabel to maybe give cars a push if necessary...
