Digital or analogue?

SmartRace is mainly designed for Carrera Digital 132/124 (connection via Carrera AppConnect adapter). However, the timing also works with analogue systems such as Carrera Evolution, Carrera Exclusiv or even the entire old Carrera Servo in the specially integrated analogue mode. And all without any changes to your track.

If you like the real experience of racing this app is a must-have. If you have Carrera 132 1:24 scale digital slot car set

Feature rich (just see the list), beautiful sounds and visuals, excellent GUI, and all this from a developer that started from zero and little support. I hope he’s making money. Well organized with steady updates, informs the community consistently on changes, fixes, addons. Folks, this is easily a $50 value if not more. Buy it. And now he adds analog timing detection (android for now, soon for iOS) just in case we have an analog track we’d like to race on…whaaaat? That’s fantastic! All I want to know is here can I pay more to support your incredible work? Edit: found how to give more, there’s a subscription option and I paid it. Worth every penny.

I like the layout of the app. I mean if your going to pay for something then it might as well look decent. I like all of the cool features and the inventory of cars and drivers and tracks to keep things organized. Very smooth driver displays and I’m sure there is many more wonderful features to come!

It’s a great addition to the carrera slot car set. This is the app the company should have put out. The developer responds and rectifies your concern with quick turnaround period. Cannot say enough good things about this app and the developer.

I wish it had the countdown voice like the Carrera app. I’m a brand new user and the app is asking me to rate it a little too soon. Give users more time to use the app before asking to rate it 🙂 EDIT: Change to 5 stars because the developer is totally on top of this app! EDIT: HUGE UPDATE TO APP! I submitted several ideas and all but 1 was implemented! This rating system needs more stars! Great Work!

with over 1000 reviews.

Fast support. At SmartRace you have a personal connection. And you get answers quickly and personally.

Constant further development. Since SmartRace has existed, over 90 updates with many new functions have been released.

Community-oriented. Many things that have been integrated into SmartRace are based on suggestions from the community.

Excellent rating. SmartRace is appreciated by its users. This is shown by the reviews in the app stores. Thanks for that!

By racers for racers. There is no big company behind SmartRace, but racing enthusiasm.

Keeping the users in mind. Every new function is implemented in such a way that it is understandable and usable for every user.

Which device do I need?

You’ll need a tablet or smart phone with either Android (version 5.1 or later) or iOS (version 11 or later).

Which Carrera hardware to I need?

To use SmartRace, you’ll need the Control Unit (20030352) and the AppConnect dongle from Carrera. SmartRace does not work with the Carrera Black Box.

When will you release the next version?

I will release new version as often as possible. If bugs where fixed, I usually release immediately. Besides that, I’m continuously working on new things which I will release step by step.

Something is not working as expected.

Don’t worry! Please take a look at the manual or drop me a line at support.smartrace.de if you think you found an issue. Thanks!

Does SmartRace work with the Carrera black box?

No. To be able to use SmartRace, you need the Carrera Control Unit (article number 20030352) and an AppConnect adapter connected to it.

Does SmartRace work with other bluetooth dongles?

Unfortunately not. SmartRace does only work with the AppConnect dongle from Carrera and not with other dongles such as the CockpitXP Bluebox.

Do I have to buy SmartRace several times for several devices?

No. Once purchased, SmartRace can be used on any number of devices. The prerequisite is that the same Apple or Google account is used. Mixed operation on iOS and Android is not possible without purchasing the app for both platforms.

Can I test SmartRace before buying?

SmartRace does not have its own test version, but you can “return” apps within a certain period of time both in the Google Play Store and when purchasing them via iTunes.  You can read how to do this here for iOS and here for Android (only within 48 hours of purchase).

Can I buy add-ons individually?

Yes, this is possible. Simply open the “Add Ons” dialog in SmartRace and open the “Included Features” tab. There you can purchase the respective add-on individually via the green shopping cart icon for a one-time payment. It will then be yours forever.

Feel free to contact us at any time if you have any questions about SmartRace or need support in using your track.
