Barrie - if you are starting from scratch, you do indeed have a lot of options! It will depend on your budget, the space you have and - probably most importantly - your plans...

If you are even vaguely thinking of trying out digital racing, a sectional track system will make that much easier, cheaper - and simple to discard the digital sections if you don't like it. It's certainly not impossible to add digital lane changers and pit lanes to a wood track (to use the Slot.it oXigen or Scorpius Wireless systems), but they are major surgery to install and a real mess if you want to remove them!
