Carrera Red Guide

I've just opened my latest carrera car to find the spare Scalextric guide is now red and not black.

If anyone from Carrera reads this forum please tell us why this is as the red guide will not work with Scalextric Digital so not only did we have to modify the guide to get it to work in the first place now its red so won't work at all.

Not a very impressive move there, I'm a huge Carrera fan but this is either just plain stupid or is trying to make it more difficult to run their cars on Scalextric Digital to try to force Carrera fans to swap systems (which will not happen as its to much of a huge cost)

unless anyone else knows why this is?

Yeah that red guide that came with my SLS GT is as useful as a chocolate teapot.


LOL - That's what I thought as well Julian, no black plastic, we'll just use whatever we have left.... day-glow yellow would have been really jazzy....

I'm glad to report that the red guide works just fine on:

APB re-flashed to anything after V1.05.

Just did 200 laps with my Heico Carrera Mercedes SLS....and each and every lap was counted.
