Carrera Digital Slot Car Pit Lane Review
Ойындар
The pit lane addon is neat, but it's nowhere near as essential as influencers and their enablers like to claim it is. Frankly, I feel like they should be included standard with every track set, because fuel consumption is built into the digital control unit. Pit lanes are extremely hard to find for sale at retail prices at the time of this upload, and I encourage folks to be very careful who you buy from.

The pit lane can create some more competitive solo racing with ghost cars. You will need to pit but they do not. Great video
Your honesty is very much appreciated. I also definitely agree that some of these things should be baked into the set instead of having people pay more to add on. In this day and age Bluetooth SHOULD be included when a set costs over $500 to start with.
Subbed! Many thanks for your honest and no b.s. reviews. Back in '67-'68 we had an Eldon set; what fun. ~ early 2000s a Scalextric set...after researching, there's a Carrera 30031 - RETRO GRAND PRIX on the way. To me, the "ghost car" and lane change bits look like a lot of fun. Bob
Thank You for your honest review. This is the reason I decided to get Scalextric over Carrera. Their are a lot of KZreadr pushing Carrera digital over Scalextric digital.
Thank you I appreciate your honesty
I do want to add that after a few months of disassembly and reassembly, the pieces are starting to fit together better. But for what this stuff costs, the pieces should fit together properly from day 1.
Yes great video thank you, Apriciate Your input
Just Sub'ed ya brother! I got the Bull & Horse + Race ta Victory, I must agree. You do not need the pit lanes to have a lot of fun, but like you I will grab & put into my track. Happy racing brother 👍 #slotcarsareback
Though I think any addition to a slot car track is a good one.That way you can choose, if you wanna play with pit lanes or not.
Ngl I would save up to buy a new pit lane, cause you going to dislike the gap eventually.Youur gonna half to wait till summer, but you’ll like it more.
It's very clear from the video that you haven't fitted the parts good enough. There are big gaps in each end, that shows this. The connections might be tight, but if you press the parts together properly, this won't be an issue any longer. So I believe the salesman when he says they are not used, because this is a typical issue to new parts.

They won't push together properly. No amount of force will seat them. The piece with the word "Fuel" on it is not the same length as the other pieces. I've had several people reach out to me on Facebook confirming similar issues with their pit lanes. It's a known issue.
The gaps can go away. They fit super tight, but you can do it WITHOUT tools. Why do you even like the hobby if your going critique everything negatively? Your views are more cons than pros.

Maybe that's more of an inditement against the low standards of quality and value-for-money among rank-and-file slot car enthusiasts, eh? I paid for this stuff out of my own pocket, and I'm under no obligation to praise mediocrity or shill for manufacturers and retailers who are ripping off consumers. I've received plenty of feedback from other racers confirming that Carrera's digital track pieces don't seat into analog pieces properly because of the sensor housing. I'm not here to make you or anyone else feel good, and if you plan to watch my next slot car-themed review, you might want to change your Pampers first.

"why do you like something if you have negative criticism about it" is a pretty childish take
