Features
Race control like a TV broadcast
Everything a race or club night needs — automatic, fair, and hands-free.
Start lights with random GO
Five red lamps light up, then GO — with a random hold of 2 to 5 seconds. No driver can guess the start.
Automatic false-start penalty
Jump the countdown and your lane instantly loses power. The standing time shows up in your first lap — the penalty scores itself.
Chaos mode
One button: power off, race frozen, big chaos overlay. Collect the cars and resume seamlessly.
Per-lane finish
When the flag drops, everyone completes their lap — and each lane is cut individually the moment its driver crosses the line.
Rankings & track records
Lap times, personal bests, track and lane records, team standings — recorded automatically, available any time.
One-click results printing
Show the overall result, print it, or both — straight from the dashboard, no second window.
Crash-proof resume
Power cut or PC crash mid-race? SlotDash saves the race state continuously and resumes the race after a restart — with the power off until race control releases it.
Driver changes in team races
Shift + lane number changes the driver without stopping the race. Stint times with minimum and maximum length, team standings per driver.
Practice with a queue
More drivers than lanes? The queue rotates automatically and shows who drives next. Times can be reset on the dashboard at any time.
Live dashboard
A race night in five pictures
Built for projectors and big screens: everything happens on the dashboard — from the lineup to the overall result, without switching windows.
1Lineup
Heat, lanes, drivers — all at a glance. One click on “Start race” and the lights take over.
2Start lights
Five red lamps light up one after another, then GO — with a random hold. Jump the start and your lane loses power.
3Race
Position, laps, last lap, personal best, the last five lap times and the gap — every lane in its own color.
4Result
After the flag: ranking of the heat with laps and best lap. On to the next race, or repeat the heat.
5Overall result
At the end of the series: overall standings with total time and best lap, plus fastest lap and fastest heat of the night — show, print, or both.
Official lane colors
2 to 8 lanes, each in its SRA color. Car number = lane number — from the lineup to the result.
Race control
Everything under control — one window
The admin area is the cockpit of race night: set up races, manage drivers, review results. Between heats you operate everything right on the dashboard.
Start on the dashboard, track call, stop, “restart heat” and “score & finish” — everything always one click away.
One button per lane, or simply key 1–8: the lane loses power for the set time — immediately, or after the next pass over the start/finish line. During a track call it is noted and applied on restart.
Six race types including qualifying and a group system, race length with quick presets, all WinRBM race-end modes.
Car number = lane number in the official lane colors, lap counts live. Names are editable — even during the race.
The complete manual (12 chapters, five languages) right inside race control — offline, in the selected language.

Race control
Drivers, results, settings
Three more areas in the same interface — everything local on the race PC, nothing goes online.
Drivers
Driver database with car assignment, teams and car management. Names can be changed even during the race.
Results
Ranking per driver — including laps from team races —, track and lane records, team ranking and all saved races with stints and CSV export.
Settings
Bepfe box on the COM port (auto-detect), club & track, number of lanes, minimum lap time, language — and multiple tracks/classes with their own records.
Race types
Six race types, one night
From casual practice to series racing with groups — all WinRBM race types and race-end modes, plus extras.
Single race
One driver per lane, classic racing on laps, minutes or seconds.
Series race
Everyone drives every lane exactly once. More drivers than lanes? Continuous rotation (club scheme) or groups, just like WinRBM.
Team series race
Every team drives every lane exactly once. Driver changes on the fly, stint times and team standings per driver.
Qualifying
Everyone solo on one lane, fastest lap counts — the result sorts the starting order.
Head-to-head
On 2-lane tracks: everyone against everyone, on both lanes.
Practice & timed practice
Free driving, or with a time limit and automatic breaks. More drivers than lanes? A queue with automatic rotation.
Manual
The manual — in five languages
Every feature explained, with real screenshots: from connecting the Bepfe box to reviewing results. As a printable PDF or readable online.
The same manual ships inside the software: the “Manual” button in race control — offline, in the selected language.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Short answers about SlotDash, WinRBM, hardware, price and the trial version.
What is SlotDash?
SlotDash is the modern WinRBM for Bepfe tracks — available now. The race software for slot car tracks with Bepfe impulse electronics measures laps directly from the impulse signal, controls track power and the start lights, and shows the race live as a dashboard for a monitor or projector. The current version is 5.5.
Is SlotDash a replacement for WinRBM?
Yes. SlotDash is the modern WinRBM and replaces it 1:1: all settings, all options and all race modes are included — in a modern design, with start lights, automatic false-start penalty, leaderboards and track records.
Which tracks and hardware does SlotDash work with?
With any slot car track that uses Bepfe impulse electronics, from 2 to 8 lanes. If you have no track connected, you can try SlotDash with the built-in simulator.
Does SlotDash need internet or an installation?
No. SlotDash runs fully offline with no installation: download, double-click, start racing. The licence can be activated offline too — the race PC does not need internet.
How much does SlotDash cost?
The full version is a one-time 29 CHF (or 31 EUR / 35 USD), no subscription, with all updates included. Payment is by bank transfer; once it arrives you receive the download link and licence code by email. Until 31 December 2026 an introductory price applies; the regular price of the full version is 99 CHF.
Is there a free trial version?
Yes. The training trial is free and has no time limit. It includes free practice and timed practice with the live dashboard. Races, results, rankings, printing, CSV export and management are part of the full version.
What happens after a crash or power cut?
The race state is saved continuously during the race. On the next start SlotDash offers to resume the interrupted race: laps, times, scored heats and stints are kept, and the power stays off until race control releases it. Every finished heat is saved immediately anyway.
Is SlotDash suitable for team and endurance races?
Yes. In a team series race you change the driver with Shift + lane number without stopping the race. SlotDash measures the net driving time per stint (without track calls and breaks), warns when the maximum is exceeded and shows the team standings per driver at the end. The laps also count towards the ranking and best laps of the individual drivers.
