PREFACE: I have searched the forums on this topic and the posts are old. 6-12 years old. And talk of breakage of guides or going the other direction Carrera to Scalextric.
ISSUE: I have found that all of my Scalextric 1:32 cars (w/Carson chip) that run on my digital Carrera 1:32/1:24 track have difficulty clearing a lane change gate. Specifically, the gate is triggered normally but when the car goes through, if fails to reset the gate. So the gate stays open.
This does not occur with any of my Carrera cars (digital or converted to digital). My Scalextric cars are less than 5 years old including a brand new BTTF DeLorean and all the guide blades appear identical. Which is shorter and smaller than the Carrera guide blades.
QUESTION: Is there a replacement or modification for he scalextric cars to function on a Carrera Digital track? From the SlotForum, there are mentions of B-Nova guide adapters with a Slot.it guide but they are old posts as well. I may email a couple of my vendors to check on this issue.
I would think because of the Scalextric removable braids and disk making the guide blade larger would change this piece to a attached version.
Are there easy kits or adapting existing parts to convert Scalextric guide blades?
