The Week’s Best Slot Car Set!

Why? Because it’s harmless fun to race’em or wreck ‘em and snap-fix the wrecks to race again. And you can race any brand of analog car in between crash fests. And the set is on sale at $25.00 off the regular price.

 

Scalextric C1301T Demolition Derby Race Set

1/32 scale analog slot car race set. The ultimate chase and crash slot car set for all ages! You’ll buy it for your kids but you won’t be able to resist playing with it and laughing yourself silly as you blast through the intersction to t-bone your opponent and watch the parts fly. The parts of the car bodies go together like Lego blocks on top of the basic (very sturdy) chassis and when one car hits the other some or all of them fly off in every direction. The last driver with any body parts remaining on his car is the winner! And if you and your kids get enough of crashing you can buy two normal race cars and enjoy the challenge of competitive racing (but you’ll still have to watch out for that intersection!)

Complete race set – everything needed to begin racing is in the box. An ideal set for children and beginners. Super resistant cars stand up to the bumps and bangs of racing with reliability and crashworthiness for lots of racing fun. Additional track, cars, and accessories, available separately, provide unlimited potential for expanding this race set into your dream racing layout.

Scalextric C3405 Classic Mini Cooper S, Australian Touring Car championship

1/32 scale slot car. Model of Neptune Racing Team, No2, Australian Touring Car Championship. Driver: Manton

History: In 1958 the Mini rapidly took shape around Alec Issigonis’s concept. Leaps of engineering imagination were performed including the placement of the gearbox under the engine, front-wheel drive with the power unit mounted transversely, and rubber cone suspension designed by rubber expert Alex Moulton. The Mini soon became a car beloved by the ordinary man as well as the racing world. Although, as a race car, the Mini was not the quickest, in terms of straight-line speed, on the track it was certainly the car that would gain a big advantage through twisty parts of a circuit or rally stage.
