Scalextric cars tend to be excellent in visual detail but are largely basic in technology, featuring fixed wheels, rear wheel drive and a static magnet with little or no adjustment. However, Scalextric is by far the most popular brand, and it's a name known to everyone.
Inroads have been made in recent years with new technology such as LED lights and a belt drive 4WD system on some rally cars.
Scalextric cars are a VERY safe gift purchase - a well known, quality brand that is backward compatible with sets going back over 30 years. |
