Slot Car Race Sets

Slot Car Race Sets

For all the speed demons out there who dream of becoming the next Michael Schumacher or Lewis Hamilton but could never get themselves hired by Ferrari or McLaren, there are always slot car race sets.

Speeding up and competing with those miniaturized look-alike of Ford GT 40s or
Formula 1 automobiles could be just as exciting as racing the real thing. The common scales of the miniature automobiles to the real ones are 1:24, 1:32, or the HO scale which used to be 1:87 but now closer to 1:64. The scale of their cost, however, is infinitely smaller at roughly 1:150,000 to 200,000.

You can buy two model Turbo IndyCars with a two-lane 8.4-feet plastic track for as low as $60.00. Alternatively, you can choose the $450.00 version that comes with a Porshe GT3 RSR and a BMW Z4 Coupe, a 30-feet racetrack that can accommodate up to six automobiles, and two infrared wireless controllers.

Whichever model you choose, you can always imaging yourself crossing the finish line ahead of the rest behind the wheel of a $10 million plus formula 1 racing machine.
