What is Scalextric Digital

Scalextric Digital represents the latest technological advancements in the fantastic hobby of Slot Car Racing. Allowing up to 6 cars to race, simultaneously in any lane at any time, you can now experience even more realistic thrills and spills, just like on the real race track. Perform real life racing moves with the flick of your trigger, overtake and block just like a real racing driver.

So what are the main differences between tradition, Standard Scalextric race tracks and Digital ones?

• Digital allows up to 6 cars on the track in any lane at any time, even on 2 lane tracks. Standard tracks need one lane per track.
• Switch lanes using the new digital track sections to overtake and block your competitors.
• Digital cars and track are fully compatible with standard Scalextric Layouts and sets
• Very simple to set up. No experience is necessary.
• Digital handset controllers are fast, responsive and fully interactive.
• 4 and 6 car powerbases are available.
• Pit Lane track sections now available for added action.

New to the hobby?

If you're new to slot car racing, then the best option to get stuck right in to Digital is to opt for one of the Scalextric Digital sets. Prices for the new Digital range start at around £88 for the Digital Driver set, featuring two superb BMW Mini's, right up to the flagship Digital ProGT set which comes with 4 ready to race Digital cars and a large circuit of track for around £300.
