Cool ideas. For those interested in distances per lane, I got them here: #1 (54'11" vs 54'10") #2 (61' vs 60'10") #3 (55'10 vs 57'8") #4(58'10 vs 60'9") #5(51'7" vs 53'6") #6 (58'5" vs 60'3") #7 (54'1" vs 56') #8 (58'7" vs 58'5") #9 (63'5" vs 63'7") If you do not have the digital system I highly recommend tracks 2, 8, and 9 due to how close lanes are, otherwise it would make it quite unfair to the racer on the exterior lanes. As example, track #4 has a difference between lanes of almost 2 feet! (close to 60cms). That's an extra 19'2" (6 meters) if you have a 10 lap race!
Thank you for sharing these very original layouts. Unfortunatly the information about pieces of track is not readeable on the screen. Continue sharing with us more layouts, please!
Yes that is unfortunate. Maybe screen capture and zoom? Inventory I have to build these is: 27 - standard straight (inc lane changes) 1 - control terminal 2 - 1/3 straight 2 - 1/4 straight 8 - 1/30 curve 19 - 1/60 curve 6 - 2/30 curve 6 - 2/30 Banked curve 2 - 4/15 curve Hope that helps.
@@zoskinso3420I’ve still got a long way to go! Haha A 2/30 banked curve, a Bluetooth adapter, and a pair of pit lanes will be my next Carrera purchases.
Good evening. Getting into slot cars. Just saw this video. Having a hard time making out the parts list for Multi Level #1. It's a great layout for my space if you could clear up the parts list for me. Great video.
Hi Mark, thanks for the nice comment. The parts list is: standard straight 26 (lane changes = 2 straights) 1/3 straight 2 1/4 straight 2 Power terminal 1 1/30 curve 8 (could be 6 - 1/30 & 19 - 1/60 but the list is what I had) 1/60 curve 18 2/30 (banked or not) 6 4/15 curve 2 (I got these at CincySlots, they sell single track pc. A pkg is 12 pc) Have fun. 👍
Thanks for the details!! I am preparing to build one ,probably yours, this Christmas I am building it on a "rotating Table. This is so one side is Permanent mount Track and Decor the "flip will be my wifes work table : Any suggestions on how to affix all pieces to be able to flip over? thanks a lot
These clips are available to secure track to base. Carrera 85209 Track fastening stick, for securing 124/132 track to a surface. Available from Carreraslots.com and elsewhere. Interesting idea, good luck and thanks.
Wow. If you don't mind, we're new to this. What are you using for the track supports in the center of some of the elevated track sections? Is there an app for the Carrera track designs? Thanks.
Hi Suzukii, I make all my track supports out of MDF (fiberboard), scrap wood and styrofoam. You can see them in my video 'Carrera track shoulders, mods, jumpers' starting @ 2:01. There are several track design apps available. I use a free app I downloaded, Carrera Track Planner, it is not great but does work for my needs. Also visit the SmartRace website, at the bottom of the page is a link to many track design ideas. SmartRace is a race and timing management app (about $12.00) I highly recommend for Carrera. Thanks for watching & commenting.
thanks for these good ideas. Can you tell me if it would be worthwhile to buy a cheaper 1/24 digital track and expand it with a cheaper Evolution track?
Thanks anton, I think basic Carrera track is the same for digital and evolution, I don't know of cheaper compatable track parts. Usually cheaper to find expansion packs that fit your needs and add single pieces as needed to complete layout. I designed several layouts and made an inventory of what I needed and shopped for deals when I started.
@@zoskinso3420 thank you for your thoughts. I guess it's good to buy little by little, depending on how much money I can save. I should probably also look for used tracks. however, I am a rather poor student 😺

@zoskinso3420 - Thank you for doing this. I bought a D132 set during the Covid lockdowns but never had the room to keep a track up any longer than a few days. I now have the room for a permanent setup with limits but can build any of the plans you showed and I am stoked! Thank you su much, Im sure I am not the only grateful viewer. You replied to a comment indicating the track inventory. Did you build all those layouts with that inventory or was it for one plan in particular? Thanks in advance. - Nick
Hi Nick. I think that track inventory will build all of these layouts. Adding 2 more 1/4 straights (4 total) should build the layouts thru #18. CarreraSlots.com, LEB Hobbies and Cincyslots.com are a good source for parts. CincySlots sells single pieces, handy because I didn't want to pay for 12 - 4/15 pc when I wanted 4. Thanks for the nice comment. Good luck with the layout and Have Fun.
Thanks. Sorry the list are hard (impossible) to read. This is the list: Standard Straight 26 (includes lane changers) 1/3 Straight 2 1/4 Straight 1 Power Terminal 1 Curve 1/30 4 Curve 1/60 16 Curve 2/30 (bank or flat) 6 Enjoy.
Hey I'm new to this, well new since 1986, I want to get started but in a 1/24 scale digital. Is there a set I can buy or you recommend that will give me wireless controllers as well? And should I buy multiple sets instead of a set and expansion packs?
Sets are supposed to be available this month from Carreraslots.com & LEBhobbies.com, 124 sets w/ wireless. Two sets is great but with the cost of 124 sets expansion pks may be more economical.
All the shoulders/borders & fences are home made. Most of the parts I made from MDF (medium density fiberboard). I used a jig saw and bandsaw to create the shapes.
I have old Carrera analog track. Tons of analog cars. Will these layouts work with my old track. Can I mix digital and analog track. Retired now I want to get back to ut
Layouts should work fine. Carrera Digital & analog tracks (132/124) are the same, difference is in control box and cars. Digital cars work on either, analog only work with analog control box. Old track looks compatable with newer track but I can't say for sure.
Chief, Short answer is about $750 total to build these layouts. I started with a set w/digital controllers on sale for $269. Once I knew I liked it I designed a few tracks and figured out what I needed to build them and bought packaged parts & individual as needed. A consideration is if a great deal can be found (as I did) buy 2 sets (I didn't). 4 cars, 4 controllers, backup power terminal and power pack, less track to add. Hope that helps.
@@zoskinso3420 That was perfect. Thank you so much. A group of us were slot car racing in the late 1960's. While a lot has changed, it looks like a lot has stayed the same.
