SmartRace for Carrera Digital

The added championship mode was the clincher for me! Now that you can have several racers and rotate the selected cars allows for a fair and equitable race experience. Widgets are an added touch. Highly recommended.

The app is great but the in app purchases make it kinda annoying

What an amazing app this is and an awesome addition for the Carrera Digital world! To top it off, the support is really great too. I had a little hiccup in the system that I couldn’t get to work, Marc got back to me right away and low and behold, I had an installation that I had put in backwards on my track so it was totally on my doing. Marc’s troubleshooting scenarios got right to it and solved the issue! Back racing full tilt! THANKS MARC!

This app is extremely well put together. It is intuitive, and has more features than i expected. It just works well too. Props to the developer!!

This app is awesome. Brings the hobby into the digital age.

This app is amazing and how it brings racing to life is incredible. Thanks for your continued pursuit in pushing the envelope of what slot car racing can be.

This app is awesome. I wish it would count ghost car laps. I set up races with only ghost cars. It’s one of my favorite things to do with my carrera track. It would be amazing if the app would track a ghost race just like a Norma race. SmartRace please add ghost cars to the lap counter.

This app is fantastic for Carrera digital but that’s not all. It’s great for analog HO AFX racing track too! You can actually do championship racing with an analog track! With the available add-on an iPad connects to a phone that acts as a lane sensor. Sometimes I set out my Carrera digital. Sometimes I prefer my AFX racing HO track. In fact, these days I set up a track for racing solitaire with a crossover so I can race around the track and then cross over and continue racing the other lane around the track. I do qualifier round robins racing each car separately for track record. Each category for itself and each car for the category. SmartRace is perfect for it. I love this app!

I’m writing this review in spite to say thank you. I have a Race Club sponsored by Carrera Slots US, with 20+ people who come over to my house and race on my track once every month. We tally up points, have a solo championship, a team championship, and even a full awards ceremony at the end of each season. We use your app for all our free practice, qualifying, and race sessions, and so far have 0 complaints. Please continue to update it with new and exciting features, to continue to make this app even better!

I really enjoy this application. I know it is designed around the Carrera track system, but it does work fantastic with the Scalextric Analog track too using the ARC system as well. If I had only one suggestion it would be to utilize the IR sensor in the Scalextric Arc system to count the laps, etc. This would eliminate the need for another device (iphone, Android, etc..) to run the Smart Race Connect application and finding a good postion for it to track the cars as they pass the start/finish line.
