Scalex Manager v2.27 for the PC is the result of 5 years of development by Kevin Tombeur from Maidenhead Scalextric Club. The program records all laps, lap times and race times and stores personal fastest times from all categories and of course lap and race records. It can run endurance races and various other options for a variety of racing. Power is automatically cut to the lane when a racer finishes and an emergency stop facility is provided for those extra special crashes! Additional facilities include stop-go penalties, automatic jump start detection with custom penalties and built in protection to prevent false lap counts when a car jumps lane. Editing facilities are provided and the program can cope with anything from 2-16 lane circuits. For more information, please e-mail your name and requirements. HardwareThe hardware to link the track to the PC has been developed by Richard Danielian. Richard is not a racer but has
worked hard with Kevin Tombeur to perfect this system. Richard custom builds the boxes to
match the requirements of the track. The exact specification will depend on the software
required and number of lanes, facilities etc. ReferencesThis system is proven, having been used for over 4 years and was
faultless throughout each of the 1995/1996/1997 British Scalextric Grand Prix held by our
club and for 1998, 1999, 2000 & 2001 where.West London Slot Car Club were the hosts. Some reference clubs using this system:-Eastcote, West London, Maidenhead, Burnt Oak, Molesey, Wood Green Isle of Man & Barnstable.
The system is in use in Belgium and even Australia! It can be used on any slot track and
not just Scalextric. Detailed references will be provided if necessary or you can come
along to see for yourself! |
