Hi All, Back in the 1970s my dad got me an Airfix slot car racing set. I think we had the Monte Carlo one with he red and white minis and another one with a Lotus cortina and a Vauxhall Viva. I absolutely loved racing those sets. Moving on a few years to the late 1980s, I had a Saturday job at Beatties in West London and I bought a set which I think was called Mighty Metros. That was my last experience with Scalextric I left the UK in 2012 and now I live in North Carolina with my wife and young son. I'd like to get my son into Scalextric and I have been looking for a set for him but things have changed a lot it seems. I was going to go for the British Touring cars set but that is no longer available so now maybe the new James Bond set with the DB5 and Vantage. I've also been looking at these ARC sets, I read the blurb for the ARC pro set and I am not sure i like the sound of, It sounds more like a video game than a scalextric. I also looked at the ARC air and I have no clue what that is and there seem to be few details about. I am going off to look at some Youtube video about ARC and see if it something that interest me. My question here though is - If you were to re-enter the world of Scalextric with the hope to get your young son/daughter into the hobby, Which set would you buy? Thanks,
