Win a Grand Prix Just Like Lewis Hamilton
Cars hurtling into corners at the speed of sound with hardly a hairs breadth between them. The cars are just too close to tell who will cross the line first. And the Porsche 997 takes the checkered flag just a millisecond ahead of the Nissan 350Z.
We could be listening to the commentary from the latest televised rally championships. But this is the kind of heart pounding excitement that can be enjoyed with a Scalextric set at home.
Scalextric have been in the slot car racing business for over fifty years. Elvis was a great fan of slot car racing and even devoted a whole room to his system at Graceland.
The new generation of digital systems with microprocessor enhanced cars and internet connectivity bring a whole load of new ways to enjoy this engrossing hobby.
Todays digital Scalextric cars are fitted with tiny microprocessors that allow multiple cars to share the same track for a more realistic, bumper to bumper racing experience. The new digital systems allow racers to overtake and change lanes for a more realistic racing experience. They even come with pitstop facilities for added realism.
These new digital systems allow racers to compete over the internet and this is making the hobby increasingly popular and appealing to an ever growing fan base. Todays digital systems are exceptionally robust, reliable and versatile enabling the creation of sophisticated and challenging track layouts.
And the educational benefits of a Scalextric system shouldn’t be overlooked. Scalextric systems can teach the basics of electrical circuits, design and building skills as well as how to drive at incredibly high speeds. Slot car customisation is something that many enthusiasts get into.
Slot car racing is open to everyone, young, old, boys and girls.
