Ferrari inks Scalextric deal

Ferrari has done a deal with the Hornby group to create miniature Ferrari racing cars for use on its Scalextric tracks. The cars will be versions of Ferrari's road and racing cars, including F1. Hornby says that the deal will underpin growth in the years ahead. The Margate-based company, famous for its toy railways, is growing fast at the moment and is acquiring some of its rivals.
