slot-car racing had a bit of boom in the early seventies
with magazines and following the american trend of having pay-to-race tracks in bowling alleys. The old cinema that had the Whisky-a-go-go and a night club had the biggest track in england 8 lane 280 feet and a seventy degree banking. And it all fizzled out in england but germany still has clubs ....

The biggest centre in Europe opened in Milton Keynes this year.

I had exactly the same although mine was definitely late 70's. Knowing my dad was probably 2nd hand and probably explains why it didn't work most of the time.
