Porsche slot car racing

Listen to that electric motor whine, just like real slot cars!

Impressive but difficult to relate too...

Makes one respect the old days...
When drivers only had a pit board, no radio, no data collection.
Just a big oil pressure warning light and a warning light for the charging system.
No ABS, back when a simple brake bias control and heal and toe downshifts were critical.

Ya, I guess slot car racing isn't like the real thing even if the cars are full size

Formula E with car swaps mid race...
In slot car racing or any other racing I've not seen where you need to bring two cars for each driver to finish the race.

I like gas as well as electric RC racing but the electric full scale racing seems too quiet.
