Ultimately, using the Race Coordinator software is what I would recommend. Using an Arduino to provide the interface to the track sensors and relays works well. The more simple arrangement of using a Parallel Port interface still works if you have an older PC with such an port.

Recently I found "sideways looking" infra-red detectors that work very well and fit nicely below the track surface.  
Ebay Linky:  https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/225484518933    These need an overhead light source but provide a silent car detection arrangement !!
