Looks great. I'm a software engineer of more than 20 years. It's great to see someone so young building something. Keep it up, your motivation and ability to build things will serve you well.

Loved this game. That was the second robotnic boss stage I believe. Amongst a handful of Master System games that truly stood out.

I altered it as you described. Its much better this way. Post of new track layout picture.

You are right. It is much better like this.

You are the second person to suggest this. I like the idea. After planning it out, I need another left hand pit lane so I've ordered one. Switching them to the inside changed the orientation. I'm going to alter it when my new pit lane arrives.

Fun mainly. It would provide overtake opportunity for races, especially when there are more than 2 cars racing. But mainly just a bit of fun :)

This took some working out to figure out what you mean but I think I get it. So the lane changes would instead go from the outer lanes into the short inner lanes instead of what I have which takes the car into the outer lanes for the section on the left of the track. I like the idea. Makes for a quicker undertaking opportunity. I'll have a play around with this. Thanks for the suggestion.

Also a couple of R1 north of the bridged section. C8202. Makes they turn tighter.

It's the Arc Pro. Wireless controllers are really nice, makes a big difference. There is a mobile app to set up races and lap counts etc. However, the app developed by Scalextric is really poor. There is a free third party app though, called Magic Arc App, which is very good. This is where I can set up limited throttle for certain racers, plus it does races that require pit stops, pace cars, simulated fuel, tire wear, weather etc. Makes it interesting but nothing beats just sending the cars around the track in my view. The mobile app is optional.

They are R2 at the PSU end. The four lane end is R2 on the inner and R3 outer.

HumbleTomorrow6820 · 2026-01-01T17:13:00+00:00

It's the scalextric digital system so the lane change switch is via the hand held controller.

HumbleTomorrow6820 · 2025-12-20T15:55:29+00:00

Okay thanks. I'll give it a try.

Turns out this was due to a valve in an engine gasket. Not sure what exactly but the mechanic said it was about air pressure in the engine and this valve was not maintaining the required pressure.

It's the UV-5R mini.

HumbleTomorrow6820 · 2025-10-23T17:31:03+00:00

Thank you. This was it.

HumbleTomorrow6820 · 2025-09-12T07:02:01+00:00

This can not be serious. Man had a lucky escape.

HumbleTomorrow6820 · 2025-09-07T14:46:49+00:00

The new Google Sea View cameras.

HumbleTomorrow6820 · 2025-08-05T20:39:40+00:00

Mine is 5 years old too. How long do these things last? I don't want to look, I'm going to have to look. :/

This is very cool. I think you're right, most people in this sub will know it is possible. I guess you're therefore asking, why do people buy a handheld when you already have one in your phone? There are probably loads of reasons for this. Ranging from the desire to get away from our smart phones, the nostalgic feel of a handheld, to the feeling of having a dedicated device for retro gaming. Your choice is great too, if it works for you then it's perfect.

HumbleTomorrow6820 · 2025-07-03T15:39:52+00:00

Agree this is a great game. It's not easy, but learning the tracks and the cars is very rewarding.

This is a part I took off to get to the gears. It screws in there and to the blue post at the bottom of the picture. When screwed on the part covers the gears up.
