The Child's First Slot Car Set

This is the slot car set that lets novice drivers experience the thrill of steering their own racecars around a multi-lane track. The cars are operated via wireless two-button steering wheels rather than trigger controllers, making them better suited for a young racer's reflexes. The right button guns the 1:32 scale racecar's engine to its top (albeit conservative) speed; the left button makes the car switch lanes, accompanied by hearty horn honking to alert fellow racers. The eight puzzle piece-shaped track pieces help young drivers build motor skills and color recognition as they assemble the nearly 8' oval layout on a 46" x 27" play mat. Includes four road signs. The play mat folds in half to double as a convenient portfolio carrier for all pieces. Requires 12 AAA batteries. Ages 2 and up. (7 1/2 lbs.)
