Race mode WITH fuel load
To give you an approximate idea, a full tank with a capacity of 025 will enable you
to complete about 30 laps on our standard circuit. It is recommended that a race
require one or two pit stops.
The next stage is to personalise the fuel level and braking level of each car.
1.1.2. Personalising each car's fuel level and braking level (individually)
Each user can choose their own strategy, planning pit stops to be made according
to the initial fuel level and adjusting braking intensity according to their driving style.
Remember the effect weight has on the car's performance (more weight means less
speed, and less fuel means more pit stops).
It is very important to bear in mind that these two personalisation options, unlike
that of the fuel capacity, must be carried out individually for each car, and that
throughout this process the car must always be on the Pit Lane track (the track with
the word BOXES on it) and must never be removed from it while personalisation in
being carried out.
To set these two personalisation options, take the following steps:
1. Place the car to be personalised on the PIT LANE track (the track with the
word BOXES printed on it).
2. Hold down the MODE key for 2 seconds to access the programming menu
(the letters PIT will appear on the base unit's display).
3. Press the MODE key 3 times until the CAR option (for personalising the car)
appears on the display.
4. Press the SELECT key once (the letters FUE will appear on the base unit's
display). You are now going to select the amount of fuel for your car. Press
the SELECT key once and (003) will appear on the Pit Box display. Each
additional press of the SELECT key will add 1/8 of a tank. You can begin
the race between levels 003 (before going into reserve) and 008 (full tank).
5. When you have decided the initial fuel level press the MODE key once (the
letters BRA will appear on the base unit's display).

6. You may now select the car's braking level. Press the SELECT key once (000
will appear on the base unit's display). Each additional press of the SELECT
key will offer you a different braking level (0%, 50% or 100%).
7. When you have decided on a suitable brake level, press the MODE key
once (the letters CAR will appear flashing on the base unit's display).
8. Press the button on the back of your electronic controller once (the button
which is also used for changing lanes) and the car will be personalised.
( - - - ) will appear on the Pit Box display.
9. To personalise the remaining cars, follow the same steps as with the first
one.
The cars are now individually personalised. The next stage is to set the number of
laps in the race.
Note: The braking level cannot be personalised on the following references of cars:
13000, 13010, 13020, 13030, 13040, 13050, or on the models included with
circuits 10000 and 10010.

1.2. Setting the Number of Laps in the Race

To set the number of laps, you need to look at the PIT BOX base unit's display.
During the race this display will show the laps completed by the leading car.
You can programme the race to count the laps up or down.

1.2.1. Race counting laps up

This is the default race mode for the system.
Once the cars have been programmed to each controller, you can start to use them
straight away: the cars are automatically set by the Pit Box itself with a full tank
and 100% braking. To start the race, just press the START/STOP key down for 2
seconds; the green light will come on and you can start.
To finish the race, take the following steps:
1. Warn the participants that this is to be the last lap.
2. Press the START/STOP key for 2 seconds and the green light will flash.
3. When the cars pass the finishing line the green light will go out and the
winner's fuel indicator will start flashing.

the START/STOP key down for 2 seconds and you can start again.
In the event that each competitor has personalised their own car and this is the first

reach 999 the counter will start again from zero.

1.2.2. Race counting laps down

To set the race to count laps down, you need to do the following:
1. Hold the MODE key down for 2 seconds to access the programming menu

4. Press the SELECT key once more (001 will appear on the base unit's
display). You now need to set the number of laps you want to do: each press
of the SELECT key will add a lap to the race, and pressing it continuously
adds laps in tens.
