Well I spent the day yesterday helping my brother sort his house/garage's and we came across two black bags full of our old scalextrics stuff from years ago. So I decided to take it and set some of it up in my lounge...I forgot how much fun it was. Track is very dusty but will give it a wipe and it will be as good as new, i just wanted to set some up to have ago :lol: bottom three corners are 45 degree banked! Just thought id share as it really is good fun, takes me back to being a child!

o yea the black bag on the top left is full of track to 8-)

Used to love all this when I was a kid. Still do :D

My cousin found his set not long ago and set his up in his room. We spent all day trying to drift perfectly around one of the corners :lol:

I had a repsol cossie when I was little aswell. I'll try and get a
pic of it when I get home :chill:

used to love this, had metros, xr2is, touring beamers and f1 cars. the first three sets had light up lights. I used to pull the shell off so it was just the back wheels and the metal guide. they go like stink then :thumbsup:

also you can make jumps, just bridge the gap with metal paperclips. adds some fun.

I had two escort cossies (white one and michellin blue and yellow one), along with a scooby, lambo and jag xk.

Couldnt stop playing with it when I was younger!

Miss being young now but driving real full size fast fords makes up for that! :lol: :chill:
