High Hopes then Disappointment
We were very excited to assemble and play w/this classic toy; Our 6 year-old-son has discovered Nascar. Unfortunately, the guard rails did not stay on and the pieces did not snap together easily.Once assembled one track worked very well - the car went so fast it flew off the track ! The other track worked inconsistently then not at all.If this toy did work it would be great fun !

HO slot cars not like they used to be...
.Back in the early to mid-sixties, I built several 32nd scale tracks from scratch. I picked this one up on a whim, anticipating an afternoon or two of pale nostalgia. Boy, was I surprised.This is nothing like the early HO sets. The cars are very fast, and handle well. Detail on the LL cars isn't very good, but Tomy's excellently detailed Super G + cars work great.LifeLike support was good- one of my cars died, and they sent a replacement right away.This is an excellent value, and makes a great father/son activity. It's a good way to learn about basic physics and electricity, as well as the need to care for and maintain machinery.Within a couple of weeks of purchasing this, I'd rediscovered an old hobby....
