Digi-q + iRacer = 9 cars simultaneously?
I am looking to have large races and would prefer equivalent car sizes and capabilities. It looks like Digi-q is the way to go, but I want more than 4 at a time. I saw that the Nikko iRacer size and performance appears to be on par with the Digi-q and has 5 IDs. I have no idea whether I can run any or all 4 Digi-q and 5 iRacer IR IDs without interference between them. Has anyone tested to see whether this is possible?
Any help would be appreciated.

While I can't confirm, I can tell you that you're NOT likely to be able to do it. The DigiQ and iRacer are going to interfere with each other.

Yup,
From everything I have heard from people, you can not run IR racers and Digi Q's together. Keep in mind, there are several combinations that you can try. Maybe a few will work??
Let's us know if you decide to try and find some combo's that will work.

9 is possible !
Just got my Digi-Q TT (ID4), with the Special Controler.
I tested if there is any interference with my Smartland OEM DIgi-Q (I have ID1,ID2,ID3,ID4).
I have a modified Smartland OEM controller for switch to all the 4 IDs.
In my test no problems or intereferences !
So 4 Digi-Q can race with 4 OEM Digi-Q.
I'm waiting for a couple of iRacer (got the 2 sets for 15$ each !)
The iRacer have 5 IDs. The CDMA code for sure must to be different then the Digi-Q one !
I don't expect any interference.
BTW race with Digi-Q or OEM Digi-Q isn't as fun as race with Bits.
So maximun arena:
4 Digi +
4 Smarland +
5 iRacer +
4 Bit +
4 Bit Booster =
21 cars independent cars.
So far my independent full set is:
1 Digi +
4 Smarland +
4 Bit +
3 Bit Booster +
2 iRacer (comming soon) =
12 (14 soon)
P.S: In non dummy truck, the Bit Booster has too much advantage over the rest !

Discovered a mistake:
The Bit Booster and Bit Standard don't run together!
The Bit Booster controller don't run the Standard, and the Standard controller don't run the booster. But if activated toghether, none of the two car will move !
So max race:
4 Bit +
4 Smartland +
4 Digi +
5 iRacer =
17 cars
