Slot Car Lap Counter

Open-source Hardware and Software to manage Slot Car Races. Includes pictures and videos on how to DIY.

Overview

The GNLC project is a Slot Car Lap Counter system with race management and track power control. We provide all information so you can build your own hardware and the software is available to download for free. Although it is aimed at HO scale tracks, it should be straightfoward to adapt the system to other scales.

How to use

We currently have a working prototype which can already be used for slot car enthusiasts, please check our how to use to know more. At the moment I am unable to assemble or sell this prototype, you will have to build it on your own.

Pricing

It is all free! Our software source code is available here. The hardware is open for anyone to produce -- we offer DIY instructions so you can build it yourself.

Development

If you want to further develop the system or just want to learn how we created it, we provide plenty of information that may be helpful:

Feedback

Please send us pictures or information when you use, create or modify our system, we would love to hear about it! =)
