Nick's back! We learn what he's been up to and what his latest slot car build is and how it faired in its first club race.

Scott has finally restored an overgrown Fly Porsche 911 and he's playing with himself again (Group C this time).

RevoSlot models are unarguably a good thing, but if they always come in threes is that a problem?  Great when it is a new mould, but down the line does anyone want three fantasy liveries, do shops want to risk being stuck with stock?

In a transatlantic, multi-time zone chat (it was past 1.00am in the UK, twilight in the US) Scott is joined by Mr Slot Car News himself, Dave Kennedy, to talk utter slot. Grab yourself a cold one and listen in.

Really enjoy the banter on these shows, thanks

Awesome - thanks so much Scott!

Most of us are daunted by just the thought of doing a 24 hour slot car race, so imagine having to commentate on one, live, broadcast to the world.

Ian & Doug, otherwise known as Magnetic Racing and Think Scalextric Events, added the 24 hour stint to their race reporting repertoire in Italy in June 2025. This week they are flying to LA to be the voice of the Slot.it Nationals from Electric Dreams for the third year in a row.

They took time out from packing to have a chat about how they came to find themselves as the voice of slot car racing.

Ian & Doug... aka Doug & Ian...

We talk about him and his company's products often so it is great to hear from the man himself: Simon Owen, Scalextric Head of Brand.


We might think it is the best job in the slotting world, but does the guy responsible for the Scalextric range agree?

We discuss his work, the origins of his love of cars and what was the reaction internally when he suggested making a Volvo Estate.  

He'll also share what's caught his eye from other slot car brands recently. You might be surprised.

We even get to hear what are the best selling Scalextric cars for 2025 so far.

Slot cars we'd love to have, but that are never going to be made.  

We are living through a golden age of new slot car variety and choice, but are there still real life cars which are just too obscure to ever be made as ready-to-run slot car models?

We reveal our Top 3 wishful thinking cars and why we think they are just too oddball to ever justify one of the slot car makers tooling up for production.

Ever the optimists, we also suggest who the best maker would be to make each impossible dream come true. It's the hope that kills you.

It's a good show guys... aren't they all though 

No pressure then. 

(Thank you.)
