Not everybody who sets out to build a slot car racing layout wants to duplicate a specific life-sized track in miniature. Many layout builders have limitations on the size or shape of the available space and want to maximize lap length within that space. Others want to build a track with certain racing characteristics regardless of what the course ends up looking like. Jul 20, 2017  The Carrera Track Layout Planner allows you to design slot car tracks using Carrera Exclusiv, Evolution, Profi and GO track types. The software allows you to enter your own track inventory and will calculate the different track sections needed to complete a layout.

*Track Layout Design: after the table was built, I had to decide which layout would be optimal for what I was looking for, i.e. a road/street course where the utilization of the available table space had to be maximal.

*To design track layouts, I used a very good piece of Software: Tracker 2000. It is no longer supported but still available at http://slotters.weebly.com/tracker-2000.html

*Another good option (and free ☺) out there is Ultimate Racer

*Tracker 2000 definition file with Artin 1/43 tracks (I had to create my own definition file for Artin 1/43 as it does not exist in Tracker2000. If interested, you can download the file, right click and save as).

*Le Mans: to build this layout in Artin 1/43 you will need: 47 straights, 10 1/2 straights, 32 R1 45 deg curves, 36 R2 30 deg curves. To complete this layout, you will also need to cut two additional R2 30 degree curves in half to get four 15 degree curves)

*Spicing up your layouts: In Artin 1/43, the following two track pieces are available: the Split piece (left, part number 4551, $10) and the Join piece (right, part number 4550, $10). Based on the existence of these pieces, I have modified the split piece (left picture) so that the direction in which the cars exit that track piece can be remotely controlled from the pits. See the details here. All you have to do to make this is buy a railroad model track point motor/switches (about $6.00 each) and be willing to do some cutting of plastic.
