Hot Wheels Sizzlers Giant "O" Race Play Set "Fat Track"

The track is easy to assemble and dis-assemble for storage. The track is just a large oval but it is a fun track to race on. Its' width is such that four sizzler cars can race AND pass each other. The track is sturdy and the cars seldom fall off like the flimsy single-lane orange hot wheels track. The juice machine is ok, but I use/recommend two power pits to simplify car charging. If you want to really extend racing time, change out the old-school 150MaH NiCD Sizzler car batteries with newer tech 300Mah (or larger if available) NiMh batteries (they work just fine w/the power pit).

The cars are fast is a lot of fun with my 5 year old watching them speed around the track. The problem is the cars don't always charge that well. I bought 6 cars and 2 of them don't work and they all don't get an even charge. Some cars are fast while others are slow.But the biggest problem is the track is terrible. The straight pieces don't fit together well and are wavy causing the cars to fly off the track. The machine they use to cut the pieces must be misaligned. I returned 1 race set to Target and got another and had the same problem. Great idea but very poor QA.

I really wanted to give this product 5 stars, but it is not as advertised so I am only going to give it 4. It is still a great product.I purchased this item on Amazon specifically because it was not the same unit that was available at Target retail stores. The track at the stores comes with a charger and a car but not the starter or the lap counter. This one is advertised as coming with the started and lap counter but not the car or charger. The cars and chargers are available at target seperately but I have not found the starter or lap counter available seperately.I received the shipment today and it is the same unit as is available at Target, with the car and charger. I am disappointed. Also, since it is from Target you have to pay sales tax. Therefore I didn't get anything that I couldn't have gotten from our local Target (for the same price) but I had to pay shipping for this one.I will be contacting them to see if it is posisble to get the unit advertised. If it is, I will add another review.

I think its the grastest love it

Whoever reissued Sizzlers never played with them as a kid.The cars are fast. An average lap is about 2-4 seconds. The trick of racing is in juicing your car at the right time (especially if only one juicer is available, resulting in wrestling fights breaking out amongst friends and siblings battling for the juicer). Also, the lap counter funnels down to a single lane so the cars crash into each other occasionally and fly off the track.With this setup you'll just be watching fast little cars whiz around the track really fast, going, "Man, I have no idea what's going on." Sorry, no lap counter, means no fun.

Add the lap computer to this set and you have something that will keep you entertained for hours. One of my best friends had this back in the 1970's and I always wanted to play with it. The lap computer went to 100, but we used to do 500 lap races. When I was an adult, I bought a set on Ebay which I later gave to my nephews. I wish Mattel or somebody would wake up and release this set again like they did in the mid 2000's. With the advances in battery technology, I am sure they could make the cars run "better, faster, and stronger". (cue $6 Million Man theme....)

I had this and about a dozen cars back in the '70s as a kid. I agree I had all the accessories and use to run 500 lap races as well.

We love this track!!! We use it with the tracer racers and the newer sizzler cars with front wheel drive
