There is a special week-end in July when all racing eyes turn towards a village in France which bears the name of the most famous Endurance Race in the world - Le Mans. This is where several classes of specially prepared cars are raced for twenty four hours, only stopping for emergency repairs, the changing of drivers and tyres or to fill up with fuel.
This Scalextric set helps to recreate that special week-end in July with superbly decorated models of the AEG Sauber Mercedes and the all conquering Porsche 962C. Each car has been equipped with brakelights as well as headlights so that when day turns to night the racing can continue. Should pick-ups need changing, as the hours run on, then the Easi-Fit guide blades ' on both cars can be quickly and easily changed. Magnatraction assists each model to stay on the track, but over confidence can cause accidents. However, the excitement does not stop there, as this set features the unique MegaSound hand throttles which really do help to capture the racing sounds of that July week-end in France.
All you have to do now is listen for - "Drivers, start your engines" and get racing.
