While best known for their expertise in earthwork and construction solutions across Idaho and beyond, Idaho Earthworks is now an official distributor of Scalextric, bringing the thrill of motorsport directly to your living room. “You might be thinking, ‘Earthworks and slot cars? What’s the connection?’” laughs Mark Johnson, CEO of Idaho Earthworks LLC. “Well, both are about precision, control, and a little bit of speed! We’re a company that values quality and delivering a great experience. Scalextric delivers exactly that, and we’re thrilled to bring this classic hobby to a new generation.” What is Scalextric? A Blast From the Past, Revived! For those unfamiliar, Scalextric is a miniature racing system featuring electrically powered cars that run on slotted tracks.

Think of it as a scaled-down version of Formula 1, right in your home! “My dad had a Scalextric set when I was a kid, and I have so many great memories of racing him,” recalls Sarah Miller, Head of Marketing at Idaho Earthworks. “It’s not just about the speed, it’s about the competition, the strategy, and the family time. We want to help create those same memories for families today.” Idaho Earthworks: More Than Just Dirt Movers – We’re Fun Facilitators! So how did a construction company end up selling slot car sets?
