Hi All,

I bought a Scalextric slot car set on Friday night whilst waiting for my wife to finish work.

My daughter loves playing Mario Karts on her Nintendo DS so I thought it would be something she would enjoy. I had a crappy slot car set as a kid that never worked properly so It was a present for both of us.

We had a ball all weekend racing each other. She's a pretty good driver and was regularly beating me after getting the hang of it.

I reckon it was money well spent for a fun family activity. Even my wife was keen to have a go.

Cheers
