Scalextric is incredibly overrated
it takes longer to set it up than it does getting sick of the car flying off. Ideally you need a huge track to stop it getting ball crushingly dull as well.

Yeah, Scalextric's crap
It always takes about 15 billion hours to set the track up. And even when you do, the thing never seems to work.

First time I heard that song
I was driving. And I nearly put the car off the road laughing when that bit came on, as up to then it had all been downbeat with talking over a guitar backing.

Then...

"IIIIIIIII'VE BEEN IN A MENTAL HOSPITAL..."
