Scalextric Compact Vs Carrera Go. The actual digital system is head and shoulders above scalextric track. Decided to change it up for better access.

I Know I’ve Read Online Comparisons Between The 2 That Suggest Scx Compact Is Faster In A Straight Line, Due To Less Magnetic Downforce.
Scalextric and scx are not the same company and scalextric does not make 1/43 cars/track. Go with the newer system (sport), electrical connection are much better and the. Artin cars can be nice, need work and are smaller than go!cars.
