On This Day in History…

22-06-1930The 1930 24 Hours of Le Mans was notable for having the first appearance of a German car, the first entry from female drivers, and the smallest ever field of entrants. It is however most famous for the duel between Sir Henry "Tim" Birkin in his "blower" Bentley, and Rudolf Caracciola in his Mercedes-Benz SSK. Both retired, but oddly the eventual winners, Woolf Barnato and Glen Kidston are barely remembered.
22-06-1930Why on earth did Scalextric choose to produce a car which didn't even make the start at the 1930 24 hours of Le Mans? They could have chosen the famous Birkin blower Bentley, or they could have gone for the winner of the race, Woolf Barnato's Speed Six.
Check out the full story of a very unusual choice of model..

The T33/3 was one of the cars purchased by Joe Nastasi . Originally a 1969 team car, it had been re-bodied and updated to 1971 specs. Chassis 75080.004 is typical of the team cars of the era and Nastasi has ensured it has not been modified beyond anything Autodelta might have done by mid 1971. It is as close as any car could be to the Tipo 33/3 1971 works cars that raced to class victories at Buenos Aires, Sebring, Spa, Monza and Zeltweg - and famous outright wins at Brands Hatch, Watkins Glen and a 1-2 at the Targa Florio.

Track plans for a Scalextric Nurburgring, a Wrenn Monza, and a routed wooden track

There are over 170 circuit designs from every major manufacturer, and more will be added regularly to build up another one of our invaluable reference sections.

Track plans for a routed Silverstone, a Scalextric Milwaukee, and a routed rally valley

We’ve got designs for Scalextric, Carrera, Ninco, Tomy AFX, Policar, ScaleAuto, Airfix, and Wrenn. We’ve also got designs for custom built layouts, for those who want to rout their own track. In fact we’ve got track plans for almost every size and scale of layout you might want.
