Just watching a program on TV about toy/model cars.

They had a Ford GT scalectrics car and it did 391mph on a 150foot length of track!

We'll rig it up to an alternator... They run of DC so I'm sure we can get the right voltage if they're not 12v

Would rock, I love Scalectrics..

I've got the truck racing one, so two lorries which are fucking hard to keep on the track as they're so light at the back, and have an alfa plus a mondeo too, used to be able to drift them pretty well IIRC

scale speeds

cars are usually 1/32 or 1/24 scale, do they use that to work it out?
