"Invitations: Cut cardstock in the shape of a car. Or create a checkered flag by gluing black cardstock squares to a white piece of cardstock cut into the shape of a flag; write the party particulars on the back. Suggested wording: Calling all race fans! Speed over to [name of your child]&amp;#039;s birthday at [name of slot car center]. Activities: If your child and his friends feel the need for speed, let them race cars without getting behind the wheel at a local slot car racing arena. The kids will love the high-speed action of racing their remote cars around the tracks. Parents will love that their children aren&amp;#039;t at risk for injury -- unless they sprain a finger pressing too hard on the start button. Birthday Cake:  Bake a large round cake and cut a hole in the middle to create an O-shaped cake. Frost the cake with chocolate frosting. Sprinkle crushed Oreos over the top of the cake (to resemble a track).  Use a knife to carve lanes in the frosting.  Place new (and washed) toy racecars along the cake-track.  Add a miniature checkered flag and traffic light.
