I was asked by a school teacher if slot car racing was educational, what could kids learn from it, so I thought that from the wealth of knowledge and experience available here you could come up with some answers that I can pass on to her.

That guy :

is a teacher and runs a proxy-race every year in France. Every aspect of the hobby is used as pedagogic means: from the size of the lanes to marshalling during the races. I let you appreciate. It's on the left under 'circuit routier à l'école primaire' . This is the kind of school where I would like to go !!
