Just like when I used to race R/C Off road cars for 8 years, some people thought they were toys but had no idea what was involved in the mechanical and driving side. Wish we had something like this at school as I loved working on slot cars as a kid, still have my AFX, Scalextric and a Group 12 1/24 car
i wish you could get that design programme free!!! I am in secondary school and our school probably wont enter even though its a computering and science school!!! lol
this is a brilliant idea, im a child of the 80s where this kind of 'toy' started dying out along with trainsets and the like. Like May says, it teaches you a lot of stuff without even realising it plus if nothing else, it keeps your brain active as you are always thinking. I think kids these days see this kinda thing as 'un-cool' - maybe because it involves some brain power???
No. I am older than them, and they dont always view it uncool, and not every child in Britain today is thick, but I do agree with you when May states about physics involved in this.
good on ya mate, we more people like you who don't want to spend their lives in an office doing "admin" work living for the weekend. I hope you make it and keep the majority of the F1 paddock british

First comment! Great Idea! I love scalextric! I want to be a formula one engineer, hopefully.
