Hi All
Just wondering if you can use these in a digital layout was looking at using 2 for a layout. Any help would be great. Brett -------------------- Bring back A1GP I miss it so

Digital is particularly sensitive to spikes on the rails, this can occur when splayed braids short rails together. This can occur at these curved lane swaps as the rails get very close at the intersection. I would paint the last 5mm of the rails at the intersection just to be safe.

You can also use an odd number of them which might persuade the drivers to see the advantages of using the lane changers ......

And you might decide later that the crashing from lane changers is quite enough, and you don't need more with a forced crossover, and take them back out to be replaced by standard curves.

We have routed one into our oval
So you need to change lanes to stay either out side or inside Adds another dimension to the race night -------------------- Don't Forget That I Finish Last ....... I Am The Best At Being Worst Have A Look Here For Great Slot Racing LEFT TURN DIGITAL RACING IN ESSEX |

The good thing about trying one (or more) in your circuit is that you can see how much fun or otherwise they are ..........
I really miss the many and varied track pieces that the classic track provided. My favourite pieces were the long chicane and the straight cross-overs ..... bliss -------------------- Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder
