Are we knocking Scalextric again? Just like the other forum.
Of course 20 year old tyres have no grip - that applies to many brands not just Scalextric.
Yes Scalextric have produced some awful tyres in the past - as have AutoArt, Team Slot, SCX, Ninco etc.
But for the last 5 years or so Scalextric tyres, glued, trued and treated with a little 3-in-one oil are extremely good on Scalextric Sport track. By all means criticise their past efforts but actually now their tyres are pretty good. Trucks, Bentleys, BTCC - all grippy and fast.
