The Scalextric Model

The Scalextric model shows off the lovely detail of the engine compartment at the rear top deck. The super-resistant design makes this car tough enough for the younger racer aspiring towards his own super-car.  The Scalextric car has the usual high level of attention to detail inside and out including DPR for Scalextric Digital Racing.  An excellant addition to our US muscle cars range.
