If your home slot car layout is like most, a single power supply is used to provide track power.  Incorporating a PC-based race management system to control track power is very straightforward with a single power supply - the link below shows an example of the wiring required.  The diagram was specifically developed for the Trakmate for Windows race management system; however, the basic principles can be applied to other race management systems as well (always consult the race management system documentation).
 
High quality track power control products such as call buttons, terminal blocks, and power relays are available in the Online Store.
