Giant Scalextric Track and Slot Car Racing Hire and Rentals

Description

Our Giant Scalextric (slot car racing) set allows up to 4 players to race at any one time using the mini racing cars. The Giant Scalextric track comes complete with a race marshal and a computerised lap timing system to work out exactly who is the fastest driver or team at your event. Race results are shown on the flat screen monitor and the track is illuminated by mini spotlights.

The Giant Scalextric track can be hired for a whole host of indoor events including Corporate Events, Promotions, Exhibitions, Company Family Fundays, Evening Events, Themed Events, Black tie Dinners, Christmas Parties, Parties, Weddings and just about anything else!

Our Giant Scalextric hire service is based on the Surrey/Sussex border but rentals are available throughout the Southeast to Kent, East Sussex, West Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire, Berkshire, Essex, London, Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire as well as further afield. Giant Scalextric hire is a great activity to use at themed events such as those with a motorsport twist or even for James Bond or 007 Nights as the Scalextric can be operated with Bond Aston Martins and life-size spy cut-outs.

Giant Scalextric hire is covered under our £10 million PLI policy and comes with full risk assessments. As with all of Altitude’s hire activities, the Giant Track is fully PAT tested for electrical safety and all rentals come with staff to oversee the activity during your event. Our 4 lane Giant Scalextric track is 12ft x 6ft in size and we need around 3ft of clear space around each edge to allow players to stand. The Scalextric tracks must be set up inside or under marquee cover (with solid flooring) and require a mains power supply. The Giant Scalextric tracks are transported in 3 or 4 large sections, each one measuring 4ft x 6ft so we need to be able to gain access for these. Please notify us in advance if there will be any difficulty with this which includes long distances, narrow doorways and stairs.

I just wanted to say thank you so much for the part your team played in making our event in September a huge success.

Mark and Luke did a fantastic job – they were like ninjas – swooped in, set up, and got up and running before I’d barely even noticed.  There was certainly some competitive racing going on!

Look forward to working with again in the future.
