Description
Racing model cars is a fascinating hobby that provides thrills and excitement for young and old alike. The name Scalextric is now so well established that it has become a generic term for electric slot car systems. The fifth edition of this best-selling book - reformatted and illustrated throughout with specially commissioned colour photographs - is the complete guide to models that have been marketed under the brand name of Scalextric since their introduction in 1957. It brings the story right up to date and includes details and illustrations of 2001 models.
