Fairways Racing Complex Forum

Must say that my first experiences of digital scalextric racing at the Fairways Racing Complex was great to say the least. This means I have to get a digital set myself ASAP and also have to have some race ready cars to give you pros some competition.

Hi Dennoy,
Getting and setting up your own cars is a lot of fun and very rewarding. You can do it a small step at a time though, as FRC has IROC Class cars ready to race for those keen enough to attend race meetings and who may not have race-ready cars.

Hello Mc Nicolls,

Enlisting on the FRC forum is an excellent start to DIGITAL racing because over the years, lots of info/topics have been posted concerning this interesting pastime. There’s surely lots to read-up on but have to mention if and when setting-up slotcars with a Digital Chip (for racing) it could probably be burnt /blown in the process because it’s happen to each one of us some point in time ... It’s like some sort of FRC initiation.

Mind you - burning (blowing) your first digital chip may or may not happen because of the overall guidance available. Also, like how you were guided sourcing a (locally) Digital Set ... I would like to recommend (here) purchasing a set from http://www.electricdreams.com Electric Dreams in the USA.

Here’s a list of some cool and exciting SSD Sets available

• Scalextric C1322T Digital (2) Super Cars ................ @ $250.00US
  Scalextric C1327T Digital (2) Racer Cars ................. @ $350.00US
  Scalextric C1296T Digital (3) Pit Stop Challenge Cars @ $430.00US
  Scalextric C1330T Digital (6) PLATINUM Cars .......... @ $800.00US

They are all reasonably priced ...

You will get the FREE shipping in the USA but in T&T there’s the duty & tax with extra charges.

Something to think about going forward.

Welcome to the FRC forum Dennoy. Look forward to seeing you at more of our events and of course, on the forum.

Trying to make it on the 23rd at the FRC but it appears at the moment that I would be unable. Was looking forward to the event with my son but as the cookie crumbled it looks like I will not be able to enjoy the excitement of the event this evening.

Sorry you couldn't make it Dennoy. It was a great evening.
