News TRACK OPTIMIZER for famous circuits - Scalextric
#1
Scalextric 

Hi,
I have been working on a digital pro bono FREE TOOL that I called the TRACK OPTIMIZER that fits Scalextric Sport track to real world official circuit data to Scalextric Sport track using catalogue pieces only, and it now also renders a flyover of the finished lap on the D level.

After choosing which track you want to build (50 famous tracks available, synced with the F1 and NASCAR Cup Series calendars), you can type in what is already in your box and it shows you which pieces are still missing to finish that famous circuit (missing shown as black pieces in the pdf and 3mf export files), or you can have the system build the track from an 'empty box'. The program features a color-coded lay-out order in .png as well as .3mf format you can view in MS Windows 3D Builder and a export sequential lay-list with SKU codes to build from.  N.B. This is an independent tool, not published by Hornby Hobbies.

You can try it for free on https://track-optimizer.lovable.app/ 

One level for every ambition/budget:

B — Budget
Detailed official red-line profile, approximately 12-17 metres of track. Full SKU catalogue. Export files include 

C — Detailed
Larger-scale official red-line profile, approximately 34–48 metres, allowing hairpins to fit. Full catalogue. More accurate fit than B.

D — Full Accuracy
Largest practical official red-line profile (BIG room required), producing approximately 48–64 metres of track. Follows the red official centreline most closely. Output also includes the flyover.

E — 1:32 Event
A true 1:32-scale version of the circuit’s official profile (will only fit a very big hall or outdoor venue) —the dream option for a club- or sponsor-built track event.

The flyover of every F1 circuit at the D accuracy setting is on the link Scalextric F1 circuit flyovers — see the lap before you build it

Happy building!
