Who of you out there has got Scalextric amongst us?

How would like the idea of pooling some track together, mirroring a track like Thruxton and having a slot car evening?

I'm sure we could find an accomodating pub central in the South West with room to set up the track, I only think of this type of fluid support unit to prevent racers getting 'driver fatigue' due to dehydration!

We could have heats one on one narrowing down to a grand final with prizes for top three!

A very small entrance fee something like a fiver buys you a race license for the day with any proceeds going to local charity.

I'm quite happy to do the donkey work on this one with a possible racedate in February.

What do you think?

A good opportunity to prove how quick you really are!

For the scalextric fans ......


Argos has most of their sets in the sale.

OK only £10 off most, but rare to see Scalextric in a sale.

Best value is the Super F1 (circuit 4) at £89.99.

And I know this because ......


Great way to add more track / power and cars to your set-up.
