at what age are you classed as being too old to play scalextrics, ie you should be mature enough to walk away or do a crossword.

Absolutely awesome.

My cousins used to have a very similar set up, only over a larger area and it was a 4 lane track. Took up the entire loft space.

There's just under 2 miles of track in various boxes and a few cars here and there. Keep meaning to make a full set up but never seem to get round to it so limited to a few week of the year frown

I got a set for my 40th Christmas. Kids destroyed the cars within days so now only I am allowed to play with it.
