Scalextric Digital C1296 Pit Stop Challenge 1:32 Scale Race Set Another challenge for Scalextric racers This oval circuit introduces an additional form of play with the digital pit stop, and also includes a crossover section, a banked curve, and a powerbase. Players can race as usual on this circuit or step up their skills for the Digital Pit Lane Game in which they must compete with other racers to get through the pit stop, but only when it's open! Players can select up to three pit stops per race. The pits will open randomly for ten seconds at a time, and will be randomly closed between 15 to 30 seconds at a time. Enter the pits when open to extinguish one pit stop light, but take care – if you enter the pits when they are closed you will receive an extra pit stop penalty! Extinguish all pit stop lights first to win the game. Four cars can be raced simultaneously using the powerbase provided in the set, and an upgrade to the C7042 Advanced Six Car Digital Powerbase allows six-car races plus a host of additional features.
