May 21, 2025 Slotfest Reunion
Back by popular demand... well a few kind folk* at UK Slot Festival asked if I was doing any more - with special guest appearance by Pedro.

There's talk of what caught our eye at the Slotfest, including the marvelously accessible Scalextric stand where Scott was caught on camera fondling Captain Scarlet's SPV, the slot.it BMW M3 prototype which Pedro insists he didn't break and the controversial, at least for the rivet counters, MRSlotcar classics.

Nick's away on his new job: more on that in future episodes. He'll be back soon.

*Sorry, I'm useless at remembering names.

November 21, 2024 It's News Jim, But Not As We Know It.
We get so excited by news of the new Skoda by Scaleauto we give credit to AvantSlot. What can we say, we're old and no one promised accuracy. Sorry Ivan.

In other news, Fly are testing the limits of collecting madness by selling a car with no tyres, Nick is very excited by the possibilities of Scalextric's surprise new wheel hubs and Scott would rather have a slice of Sloter cheese than the new NSR Lola.

October 25, 2024 We're back!
Season Two? A continuation model? Sadly inevitable?.

However you look at it, the return of (possibly) the world's favourite slot car podcast is reason to give thanks to the Gods of Slot.

What have we been doing? Why Is Nick half the man he was? Has Scott managed to resist buying EVERY Renault 5 Turbos Fly release?

There's only one way to find out - listen!

It's good to be back.

May 02, 2024 Wizard and Slots
Harry Potter and a new Top 10: what more can you ask of a slot car podcast?

April 26, 2024 Playing With Small Things
Can a 70s Scalextric Ferrari on new tyres really keep up with a Policar F1? Was the mid-90s Ferrari F40 GT a mass hallucination?

Plus, Nick buys his first Policar (no, really) and Scott learns the hard way about racing digital with weather effects activated.

All this plus the latest Top 10 selling slot cars from Pendle Slot Racing.

April 04, 2024 Discovering The Dorset Hoard
This week there's talk of honey covered Mercedes, headless drivers, a chap called Whitney Straight who ISN'T a country singer and why taking decades to build a kit might inspire a future feature. Hear also how Scott bought over 70 cars for less than the price of an Avant Slot Audi set. There's also the new Scalextric Mirage which inspired the running of previous shelf queens, the Vanquish MGs. No diffs were harmed in the ensuing lappery.

March 15, 2024 Four Wheels Good : Six Wheels Better
Six-wheelers feature in both the racing and the fun this week as Scott gets a FABulously big pink thing and - unknowingly - cheats with a classic SCX F1.

The delightful eccentricities of English slot car clubs feature and, in the absence of much new News that's caught our eye, we do note a very rich man has bought shares in Hornby. A saviour?

The show rounds off with another 'Trackside Slot Story with Nick'.
