Finally,
BEFORE you do anything at all to your track, the one thing that we learnt thanks to Billy_Cart in Australia is to use a light coating of Inox MX5 on your rails, it improves the noise level and reduces loss of signal problems for Scalextric digital. So if you have problems with your cars stopping or stuttering around the track then get hold of some of this magic oil and put just a tiny bit on your track to transform the way your cars perform.
