Everyone has a soft spot for Scaletrix and slot car racing. There's something incredibly satisfying about watching little cars veer off the track at the squeeze of a trigger. No, not in a JFK way you monster!
The dream, as a kid, is to make bigger, fancier tracks with increasingly faster cars.
Well, a group of brilliantly nerdy old men from Finland have made that dream a reality, with slot cars that go at 100mph. The video that accompanies this article is brain-frying.
That's right.
Some blokes have decided to make mega-fast overlord slot-racers that travel so quickly along a giganto track that your eyes will probably fall out of your head in your attempts to keep up.
Imagine actually being trackside.
You'd invariably puke into your hand with inertia. That, of course, is one of the finest pasttimes there is.
Anyway, no more waffle. What the little cars travelling at ludicrous speeds. Feel free to do the calculations and scale the cars to full size in your mind, and work out how fast they'd be travelling in the real world.
BROOM!
