About
us
Farnham Scalextric Association was set up in November 1993 to cater for
those of all ages interested in 1/32 scale model electric cars ---- racing, collecting,
converting, scratch-building etc. The general approach is more that of Johnny Herbert than
Michael Schumacher.
The club venue allows us to meet at a wide
variety of times, and currently every Wednesday from 8.00pm to 11.00pm for league racing
and occasional Tuesdays at the same times for practice and non-league racing; and a number
of impromptu events are also organised.
The present club members' interests cover all
aspects of our hobby and a very wide spectrum of racing ability.
Cars raced in leagues are all box standard
Scalextric, SCX, Ninco, Fly or other proprietary makes; non-league racing gives us the
opportunity to accommodate the more adventurous spirits among us with the occasional
modified and scratch-built class, but the objective is always to achieve close racing. We
attempt to race as large a cross-section of model cars as possible from motor-bikes to
trucks and most things in-between. And to enable those thirty-somethings among us to see
their older cars in action we hold a Classic Night once a quarter.
The club owns a wide selection of cars for the
use of members and guests alike, so there's no excuse if you don't own many cars yourself
at present.
