A slot car or slotcar is a powered miniature automobile or other vehicle that is guided by a groove or slot in the track on which it runs.[1][2] A pin or blade extends from the bottom of the car into the slot. Though some slot cars are used to model highway traffic on scenic layouts,[3] the great majority are used in the competitive hobby of slot car racing or slot racing.
