Testing the track

Thought I'd plug in the Scalextric Race Management System software running on the laptop and see what the lap times were looking like.  Most cars coming in around 10 secs with the faster (and more magnetised!) models getting to 9 or below.  Much longer lap times than the original circuit despite only a having a few more pieces of track - just what I wanted as this reflects the increase in the number and challenge of the corners.

Although they are still quite small, the kittens have discovered how to climb the metal loft ladder.  Since they've also mastered finding their own way down again, we've stopped trying to prevent them.  So I had a spectator for my track testing this evening...
