We had a 50 lap race and during the half way point a random driver registered on the race screen who was not running a race and marshaling. Driver appeared and had 0 laps attached like the car had rolled over the start line for the first time. Only have seen this one time though.

I suppose the reason would be one of the things mentioned here, as I think the technology has the same "vulnerabilities" as Carrera Digital: https://www.smartrace.de/en/the-smartrace-manual/trouble-shooting/smartrace-measures-lap-times-of-drivers-racers-vehicles-that-do-not-race/

Please re-open if this continues to happen and you can rule out whats mentioned in the article. Thanks!

This happened again... During race a person who wasn't even there physically popped up mid race.

Can you rule out what I mentioned in my last comment?

It is entirely possible. It did only happen once to us during the night. We have been racing the pioneer legend cars and their front guides and wiring are terrible. This could be causing small shorts somewhere.

Okay, thanks. Since this didn't happen to anyone else and I strongly suspect that whats mentioned in the article is the culprit here, I am closing this for now.
