Welcome

to the West London Scalextric Club web site. If you’re interested in racing Scalextric type slot cars, why not come along and race at our friendly club?

Whilst we take our racing seriously we aim to have fun, keep the atmosphere relaxed and help each other to get the best from their cars and equipment.

Please feel free to browse around by using the links above and find out what we have to offer, we’re always pleased to welcome new members.

If you’d like to see what happens on a race night come along, there’s never any charge for spectators. If you want to have a race there is always spare equipment and no charge for first-timers to join in.

Race Night Format

You race six times, once on each lane. Your best five times are added together and the fastest aggregate time wins, second fastest aggregate is second and so on. There’s a short break about halfway through for refreshments, tea, coffee and biscuits provided.

Scoring

First place on the night scores 25 points, Second Place on the night 24 points and so on down to a possible 25th place scoring 1 point. Note: we normally see about 10 or 12 people racing most weeks.

Championship Format & Scoring

Each class is raced 5 times during the year and your best three scores count.

This means there is space for a summer break, some non-championship “special” rounds and that you can miss a couple of weeks in each class and still get a full score for the year.
