Scalextric racing tracks
Scalextric has a diverse range of models for slot racing and miniature car circuit.
M.B. Francis established a toy production company Minimodels Ltd in 1946. Subsequently, he had the brilliant idea of introducing miniature models with mechanical motors that could be guided on the circuit. In 1956, an electric version of the road circuit was developed. It was proposed in 1957 under the name Scalextric. The cars are controlled by push-button on the circuit.
Scalextric is the leading 1/32nd scale slot racing product manufacturing brand. Indeed, the manufacturer of miniature road circuits for race cars launches the scalextric 1/32 circuit and that of the scalextric 1/32 car on the market.
The scalextric circuit plan usually has a surface area around 1 m x 2 m and can extend with the range of tracks. Moreover, the electronic system of miniature car road circuits gives the possibility of driving with six cars independently on the same double track.
The digital system also allows overtaking as well as pit stops to make the competition more realistic. In the meantime, the system is being perfected with features such as:
● The motorization from the miniature train;
