Getting Started
Introduction
SXR is a comprehensive series of custom made track libraries for Ultimate Racer, allowing you to
plan and build a massive range of scratch built, routed slot tracks, from single lane rally tracks up
to eight lane commercial raceways, from 1:64 scale tracks up to ISRA compatible layouts.

The difference with the SXR track system is that it's not based on a particular track brand, it's
specifically designed to help in the planning and layout of routed wooden, scratchbuilt tracks.
So you are not limited by the constraints of the track manufacturers, you're only limited by what
you can imagine and what you can build. Virtually any track geometry you can imagine is available.
Wide radius sweeping curves, corners that decrease or increase in radius, any number of lanes and
any scale.
Advantages
The big advantage for track builders is that the SXR libraries are accurately defined, so that the
track you build can be exactly how you planned it. It can fit exactly into the space you planned it
to fit in, it can look exactly how you imagined it, and the designs you produce can be accurately
laid out and built.
Compared to drawing out a plan on paper, using Ultimate Racer is much more flexible, allowing
changes to be made quite easily during the design development phase.
Track designs can also be uploaded to a website or printed out extremely easily, for presentation,
for sharing, and for discussion.
