I feel sorry for you Brian. I'm married to one of them as well. I even said "can we get it for the kids?"
She said "no"
I said "why not?"
She said "they are girls and they don't want a f***in scalextric, that's why"

My experience of Scalextric was my best mate buying me my first set for my 40th birthday. Get some. You won't regret it

IMHO the MICRO scaletrix are the one to for for as the proportionate track lengths are longer, if anyone buys this pm me as I have maybe 25m of this at home with ma parents going a begging (hic)

Didn't stop me getting one in Wexford Tesco at €17.50 - sure you couldn't leave it on the shelf for that price ! Have to tell the missus though

€10.50 - maynooth. One piece missing. Already have this one http://scalextric.hornby.com/shop/se...extric/?page=2 for the little speed racer, so not too bothered about missing piece of track. Checked box and everything else in included
