Very nice Claude. The signs are really something. I also like that the decoration is well balanced for the layout size.
Some people tend to put so much stuff on their tracks - especially in small ones.
The powering of the building - as noted by others - is really great!
I am very interested in the start/finish line gantry: can you share a bit more details? Are you going to hook it up with oXigen so that when the race starts the lights on the gantry will behave accordingly?

One thing that I noticed is that some cars managed to rear end other slower cars: AFAIK, with BLST this should not happen. Does this happen often?

A couple more questions (sorry):
  • Which RMS do you use?
  • How long does it take to set it up?

I don't think BLST has anything to prevent rear ending or even tail gating...
Sure, I know that. The idea of BLST is that it is able to detect the faster car vs slower one and reposition them accordingly.
In the video, the first crash that happens at 7:39 the sideways Capri is on the inner lane while the scalex BMW is on the outer lane and they are almost side by side: the BMW should not have changed into the Capri. If those were cars controlled by drivers, given that the BMW driver does not control when the car changes lane, then the same crash would have happened.
I assumed that BLST would take care of this...otherwise overtaking will be impossible.

You are right that there are limits and not all scenarios can be accounted for.
I have never raced on one yet, but would be interesting to see if drivers would adapt to the way the system behaves - for better or worse.

I agree that is a different type of experience than with standard digital.
I have never tried myself but I always thought that is was almost bullet proof. I was surprised to see that is not, but as Mr Flippant said, people can easily edit those parts.
I am glad that you have not.
Do you race regularly with others or are just off races when you have people over?
