What is the Scalextric Ultimate Guide book series?
The purpose of this series of books is to record everything ever made by Scalextric in all of its production facilities around the world to preserve the history of this ground-breaking toy and hobby that has been a part of so many peoples lives, young and old, since the 1950s and continuing to do so today.
In the 60+ years of Scalextric since 1957 there have been over one-thousand race sets produced, over five-thousand model cars and hundreds of items of track, buildings, catalogues and accessories. Scalextric has been manufactured in thirteen countries. The various owners of Scalextric only kept records of current production plus a reasonable back catalogue of spare parts and documents for the purpose of servicing customerÕs needs. Commercially, it was untenable for the owners to maintain a record of every product made. This book serves to ensure that the history is recorded for posterity.

Who needs a Scalextric Ultimate Guide book?
Anyone interested in the history of Scalextric or anyone intending to collect Scalextric models will benefit from the latest books. Many collectors choose a theme. For instance, collecting only yellow cars, or cars produced from 2000 onwards, or only Limited Editions are common. Some collect just catalogues, buildings, Ford or Aston Martin cars whilst other collectors find only cars made in France or Australia a fascinating theme. Other themes include pre-productions samples, Code 3 models, models 1-100 or models only from the 1960s or even pre-1960s, and, of course, EVERYTHING!
With the substantial worldwide growth of the community of Scalextric collectors fed by a huge back catalogue of Scalextric items and the targeted marketing campaign by Scalextric (Hornby Hobbies) at the collector market it has become increasingly necessary to update this series of books with the latest products as well as previously undiscovered items of interest.

When is the Scalextric Ultimate Guide book required?
As a collector, it is better to plan ahead by understanding what options there are and how many items there are needed to complete the collection. Having a copy of this book from the beginning will help any collector to achieve their goal.

Why would a collector need the Scalextric Ultimate Guide books?
Many collectors begin collecting before consciously realising that they have started! Perhaps, all it required was a Scalextric set and a few extra cars to race, then a few moreÉ!

If we care about racism and white privilege, what should we do?
Format: Kindle
One hundred and fifty-two years ago, slavery ended in the United States. And yet the tentacles of that time touch lives every day, all these years later. What can be done to make things better? Michael Eric Dyson, a sociology professor at Georgetown University, and an ordained Baptist minister, suggests that white people who care about the lives of black people should make individual reparations. In his book, Tears We Cannot Stop …A Sermon to White America, Dyson says, “{Black people} built a legacy of excellence and struggle and pride amidst one of the most vicious assaults on humanity in recorded history. That assault may have started with slavery, but it didn’t end there. The legacy of that assault, its lingering and lethal effect, continues to this day. It flares in broken homes and blighted communities, in low wages and social chaos, in self-destruction and self-hate too. But so much of what ails us—black people. That is—is tied up with what ails you—white folk, that is. We are tied together in what Martin Luther King Jr. called a single garment of destiny. Yet sewed into that garment are pockets of misery and suffering that seem to be filled with a disproportionate number of black people.” The book, unlike Dyson’s other scholarly works, takes the form of a worship service, and uses the concept of an extended sermon, or jeremiad, to lead the reader through confession, repentence, and redemption “through the long night of despair to the bright day of hope.” In Dysons’s view, “whiteness is a problem to be struggled with,” and his book is of inestimable value in grappling with the struggle. The book speaks at length of police brutality against black people, and fervently tries to create empathy in white readers. It includes an extraordinary bibliography of books which give insight and voice to black history, oppression, pain, achievement, and lives. And it speaks of reparations, and our responsibility as white beneficiaries of an unequal system, to take concrete actions to right the wrong, the change our country and the lives of our black sisters and brothers and their children. Dyson is imaginative, and has many suggestions for how an individual or group “I.R.A.”—an Individual Reparations Account. We could buy books for black college students, overpay our black accountant or hairdresser, pay the black person who cuts our grass double the amount on the bill, give to the United Negro College Fund, and more. He suggests that faith groups consider giving 10% of their revenues to a church I.R.A. In an interview in the New York Times Magazine, Dyson says, “If the sermon ain’t making you a little bit uncomfortable, it ain’t effective. Look, if it doesn’t cost you anything, you’re not really engaging in change: you’re engaging in convenience. I’m asking you to do stuff you wouldn’t ordinarily do. I’m asking you to think more seriously and strategically about why you possess and what you possess…..you ain’t got to ask the government, you don’t have to ask your local politician—this is what you, an individual, conscientious, ‘woke’ citizen can do. I have read many—though surely not all—of the books Dyson recommends. I have grappled with white privilege as a mother of black children, a fighter against apartheid, a civil rights activist, a human being. I have never read anything which more cogently offers “woke whites” a path to being a part of the change. I urge you to read Tears We Cannot Stop …A Sermon to White America, and to take your place in the pantheon of people who help this country grow beyond its racist past.

Powerful and especially so read aloud by the author.
Format: Audio CD
Hearing this powerful book read by Dr Tyson made it doubly understandable and enlightening. I needed to hear the experience, hurt and anger expressed so incredibly honestly and with the power of his emotion. I saw the CDs here at a reasonable price and I am so much more aware hearing rather than reading this book. Dr Tyson teaches powerful historic and current systemic racial experience such as every white person will do well to encounter. If you want to learn more than you already know, listen to these CDs on Black experience from Dr Tyson. Could be disturbing to anyone who does not want to learn the truth he teaches. It’s so packed with truth I will listen to it more than once more. Thank you, Dr Tyson.

brilliant, painful
Format: Hardcover
Timely, provocative, brilliant, painful, and, ultimately, a very necessary step toward authentic national healing and transformation. As a white, long-time fellow traveler, I am so grateful that Dr. Dyson has answered his calling to lead us toward redemptive justice with truth, decency and love--albeit, at times, necessary tough love. I am in my third read already and learning more and more each time. Dyson's sermon serves as an exceptional read for believer and non-believer alike as it offers a framework and lexicon for us to engage with one another as we work our way through ongoing racially turbulent and polarized times. I am not a critic by trade so I will leave the professional analysis to the experts. I am a K-12 educator and seeker of social justice. I found this work both accessible and challenging in the best of ways. In my daily work, the evidence of the invention of whiteness, white innocence and white fragility and their pernicious impacts are ubiquitously abundant such that Dyson’s claims simply cannot be denied. Dyson’s sermon is not always a comfortable read. That’s the point. It is a workout for the soul and psyche that results in the growing pains necessary for personal and collective liberation. Thank you, Rev. Dr. Michael Eric Dyson, for opening your head and heart so broadly and deeply there is room enough for all of us in this racial healing process. The writing of this book is the ultimate act of truth and forgiveness. You have entrusted us with your most profound insights, personal experiences, and extend a vulnerability that humbles and arrests me. As you shared in a recent interview, "your trust in us grows out of forgiveness and the demand for truth for which is stands on, and the love it seeks to extend". Amen! I am in!
