Looking with green eyes at the new SCX LeMans start set..... But is there any way I can hook this up to my 4-lane?? Can the necessary extensions be adapted or scratch built from other sections? Or do we just have to lobby SCX to do it for us.... soon. Or is it already out there? 6-lane would be cool, too! Can't you just imagine 6 GT40s, Porsches, 512s lined up slantwise by the track as the clock strikes 4?
Do any of you chaps have any suggestions?

A four or six lane Le Mans start really doesn't seem too hard. Just a matter of buying 2 or 3 sets and source the additional lane croosing pieces of ebay. they may not be cheap but I they could be sourced for a reasobale sum.
I saw a 4 lane Le mans start go ebay the other day for $550 aussie dollars!!

Of course, with digial you can have three starts (six cars) launching on to just two lanes! Much more authentic, even if you have a six lane track.

Turismo. based on that price (and taking into account selling the four cars at $30.00 each) makes the cross over piece "worth" about $400!!!

I wonder if SCX will reintroduce the part.

Will they beat Scalextric to the punch on the pit lane?

Roll on 2004!!!
