View larger.Double Contact Brushes for Maximum ChargeTo ensure powerful racing, each car is outfitted with double contact brushes on the underside to receive an optimal electrical charge. Rubber tires on all four rims also provide a suitable grip when charging down straightaways and taking sharp curves. Two lap counters keep track of your races and can be manually adjusted to record up to 50 laps. High-Speed Race Play Requires SkillOur testers found the race set easy to set up. With only a little force, the track pieces snap firmly into place for a secure hold. Once the controllers and power cord are plugged in, it's off to the races.In racing the cars, our testers noted a couple of issues that can affect performance. For one, it's sometimes difficult to align the cars exactly in the track slots. Also, the turbo controllers can be a bit tricky to get the hang of, requiring a skilled touch to apply the appropriate pressure. Too little pressure on the thumb lever, and the cars stall; too much pressure, and they race off the track like a projectile. Parents should exercise caution when setting up the track near anything fragile.What's in the BoxCarrera Go!!!
