Customer Reviews

What a fun toy!
My 3 year old son received this for his birthday this weekend. He hasn't stopped playing with it since we opened it up. I agree with the previous reviewer that the track feels kind of flimsy, but so far my boys have twisted the track a few times and it doesn't seem any worse for the wear. My 3 year old has no problem reseting the springs by himself. Rolling up the track when he is finished has been "mom's job" though. I think my favotite thing about this toy is that 2 cars race side by side, so both my boys can play together and so far NO ARGUMENTS!!! A toy they can actually share! Man, I'd pay double just for that added perk! Another awesome feature is that the track rolls, up and the toy becomes incredibly compact with storage for 2 cars. Overall, a great toy for your little car fanatic and a good deal for the money.

Portable fun
We bought this for our almost 3 year-old son and he loves it. He's a big car fan, and since this item is so compact he can take it and his case of cars to grandma's house. The track is fairly cheap, but it has withstood a 3 year-old so we can't complain. The "set" is designed to work like a tape measure, able to be rolled up when not in use, the track lies flat, and the unit has storage for 2 cars (not included). There are 2 spring activated tabs that propell the cars, and these are too difficult for our son to reset himself (our 4 year-old daughter can do it with a bit of effort).

Too Flimsy
I bought this toy for my son who is five years old because he is crazy about anything 'hot wheels'. I was great fun for the time that it worked. But the track is so flismy that it soon became all tangled up and was very hard to wind back in. After a couple of days the track got so bent up and out of shape that it just didn't wind up anymore. We ended up tossing this toy out after only 1 week. I still gave it a 3-star review because my son really enjoyed playing with it while it lasted.
