Scalextric is a well known brand of miniature slot car racing and has been in production for decades. Slot car racing got it`s name from the metal grooves in the track on which they run. These metal slots are connected to a transformer and carry electrical energy around a complete circuit. The cars themselves are fitted with electrical pickups and small motors. When the pickups make contact with the electrified track the wheels on the miniature car spin. The cars themselves are often incredibly detailed scale models of existing sports cars, such as Formula One or World Rally Championship cars. The flexibility of the track means that many different types and sizes of Scalextric circuit can be built. Some people have even built Giant Scalextric circuits which can be hired for parties, corporate launches or even fund raising events. Giant Scalextric tracks can be extremely good fun to play with, it takes skill to control the cars on these large tracks. Players have a handset device that can be used to throttle the speed of the car travelling on the Giant Scalextric track and laps can be timed using stopwatches.
