From the Manufacturer
In the Disney/Pixar movie Cars, Strip Weathers (a.k.a. The King) is the reigning champ, having won the Piston Cup many years in a row. Just shake him up to start his engine--you'll hear engine sounds, and he'll say memorable phrases from the movie. (He's one gutsy racer!) The more you shake him up, the longer he goes! Race him up to 20 feet or on the Shake 'n Go! Speedway (sold separately). Requires 3 AA (LR6) alkaline batteries. Vehicle measures approximately 5 1/2 inches long by 3 1/2 inches wide by 2 1/2 inches high.

Customer Reviews

The King's greatest car
My nephew has this car. While it's pretty simple, it is a really neat toy. The car looks way cool. When you shake it, the engine starts up, then Richard Petty talks to you and the car takes off. The review says it goes up to 20 feet, but I think it will go further. It went well even on carpet. This is easy enough for a 3 year old to work, but it also would be good for any fan of Richard Petty. How often do ya find a running Superbird these days?

Good, though not Great
I bought this Cars toy for my 22-month old son at a regular toy store a couple of months ago (he is big into Cars and so are we), though, surprisingly, he never really took as much a liking to it as the smaller, regular, Cars. I've come to think that I like it more than he does... 3.5 Stars

love the shake and go
My two year old has several of these cars, and the race track. He loves all things Cars, so these were a big hit. All of the Shake and Go Cars talk before they run, which he especially likes. They are VERY easy for a toddler to operate, but his four year old sister enjoys playing with them, too. They don't run for very long per shake, but that doesn't seem to bother him at all.
