Great FunNovember 29, 2007 J. Freeman(UK) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I was a bit concerned having read the first review so delighted to report that the set we've received has been a big hit with 7 and 10 year old boys. Unlike previous Scalextric sets we've had where the cars spend more time off the track than on it, the minis seem to grip the track really well and only spin off at ridiculously high speeds. Very pleased with it so far.

I found the set pretty durable. How much time the cars spend on track is down to your skill and co-ordination.
I think you have to accept that eventually cars will break but they are reasonably durable and the set has had a fair bit of use. I am still on the original cars but one has the top held on with a bit of tape. You can by replacement cars so do not panic.
My 4 year old is pretty good with it and we have had a lot of fun.
