South Manchester Slot Racing Club
Classic Scalextric Minis

Spirit of the class
Relive your younger days when we raced Minis (everybody had them?) on your track set out in your mum’s dining room, laid out snaking through the table and chair legs! Race these retro cars again but with modern underpinnings giving better handling/reliability. Retro cars means retro look so racing liveries, interiors etc are required, as per club general racing rules.
