Miniature racing involves the competition of small-scale vehicles, often remote-controlled, on specially designed tracks. Participants can race various types of models, including cars, boats, and airplanes, which are built to specific scales, typically 1:10 or 1:18. The races can take place indoors or outdoors, depending on the type of vehicle and track. Competitors often customize their models for better performance, focusing on speed, handling, and durability. Miniature racing is popular among hobbyists and can be enjoyed recreationally or competitively, with events organized by clubs and associations like the International Miniature Racing Association.
