A collection of vintage 1:32 scale electric slot car racing sets and accessories. The group comprises a Scalextric Road Racing set in its original illustrated box, featuring a black Lamborghini Diablo and a red Ferrari F40. A second large set is a Polistil Racing System (WRS) La Pista dei Campioni, which includes two Formula 1 style plastic-bodied cars: a blue vehicle with Elf sponsorship decals and a black vehicle in the John Player Special style. A third set is a Policar Dune Buggy circuit, containing textured off-road track sections, two hand controllers, a power pack, and one black car with red stripes. The collection further includes a boxed Scalextric Hump Back Bridge and a Scalextric Lap Counter (Model C177), alongside a quantity of loose Scalextric track sections including various curves and straights. The Policar set includes several small component boxes with printed labels reading Polistil and Pista Evolution.
