Record Breakers was a British children's TV show, themed around world records and produced by the BBC. It was broadcast on BBC1 from 15 December 1972 to 21 December 2001. [1] It was originally presented by Roy Castle with Guinness World Records founders twin brothers Norris McWhirter and Ross McWhirter.
Record Breakers were known for their speed, and on smooth surfaces were capable of 20 miles per hour (32 km/h), translating to 500–640 scale miles per hour. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The cars lacked the pins or blades which characterized most Mini 4WD cars, and instead were fitted with guide wheels allowing them to run on a track.
