How many cars come with the set?

The set is sold as a four-lane race track with Metal Machines cars included. Check the box contents for the exact car count, since Zuru has shipped this set in more than one configuration.

Does it need batteries?

No. The cars roll down the sloped lanes under gravity, so there is no motor or battery pack to charge.

Zuru rates it from 4 years and up. The small cars and track connectors mean younger toddlers should not play with it unsupervised.

Can I add track from other Metal Machines sets?

Metal Machines track pieces are designed to connect across the line, so extra straights, loops and launchers from other sets can usually be joined on. Fit varies by set.

How does it compare with a loop or launcher set?

This set is about side-by-side racing, not stunts. A launcher or loop set gives more speed and tricks, while the four lanes here are better for racing several cars at once.
