Scalextric  NASCAR: A stock class of car with only basic blueprinting allowed.

Slot.it Group C: Another stock class but considerably faster than the NASCAR when correctly set up on silicone tyres

Ninco Classics Pre 1965: A modified class that is restricted in the vital areas of wheels, tires and motor. This car, a Ninco Shelby Cobra has the Indy Grip IG2002 tires fitted, extensive body lightening by "dremeling" material from the inside, and altered gearing. As a result they are much faster than standard with no extra power. A good start for those beginning to modify RTR cars.

Muscle Car: Even more heavily modified class with few restrictions. This Scalextric Chev Camaro features a lightened body, Slot.it rear wheels, tires, axles and gears. The original wheels have been turned down to make authentic wheel inserts which are required by the rules. It uses Slot. it silicone tires and a 29,000 rpm Slot it red endbell motor.

GT:  this Slot.it Mclaren GT car typifies this class of car. It is the class with the most liberal rules and features a lightened body, light weight lexan interior, "offset" sidewinder conversion, hollow axles, magnesium wheels and independent front wheels. It uses Slot.it silicone tires on the rear.
