Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
Since the introduction of the first game in 2004, Need For Speed has established itself as the ultimate driving video game, offering gamers a world of non-stop and action-packed excitement. It therefore makes perfect sense for the ultimate driving video game developer to team up with the leading electric car racing game.
This Need For Speed set features a Lamborghini Gallardo and Nissan 350Z, racing over 5 metres of track and includes a flying leap so fans can recreate the famous chase scenes from the game. All car decoration schemes have been designed exclusively for Scalextric by the EA studio, based in Vancouver.
The 'Super Resistant' cars are tough enough for full impact racing. The cars feature easy change pick-ups and the Magnatraction system to help them stay on the circuit. Space required 210 cm x 140 cm, Track Length 532 cm. For ages 5+.

bought this for my son for Xmas. He loves it. Put it together in 10 mins and really easy to use. The cars are fairly durable. They have suffered one or two minor bits of damage but still run perfectly.

Found this gem, its a little expensive, but works really well, the only thing which would be great if they changed, is the contacts on the cars, i would have thought some kind of looped metal with a spring would have been better, but the good thing is they give you some spares. The jump in the track is hard to set at the right distance first time, it takes a couple of tries to get it spot on, this is hours of fun for my nephews.

Bought this for my 8 year old son for Xmas 2010 and it's been a permanent fixture on his bedroom floor ever since. Very easy to set up and connect the track pieces together, much easier than I remember from my own childhood. The transformer is a tiny little thing that sits on the side of the track, and nothing like the old blue dustbin you used to have to find room for!
The inlcuded Lamborghini Gallardo and Nissan 350Z cars have magnets in the base, which makes it a little easier to stay on the track (although purists would insist that the only way to race is magnet-free) but if you're really brave and/or skillfull they can be removed easily. The main bodies of the cars are robust enough, but the minor details like spoilers and wing mirrors are pretty fragile and go the distance fairly quickly. Our Lambo has no spoiler and one wing-mirror, despite several visits to "Dad's Superglue Garage". Still runs like a good 'un though. As mentioned in the title, if you get the speed right these cars will step out at the back and do a nice little drift round the bends. This is easiest on the corner that has barriers, as that stops you going too far. Get your timing really good and you can drift both cars on that corner, with the one in the outside lane scraping the barrier and the car on the inside pushed up against its opponent! The ramp set is a bit of a let down. Not so much a graceful flight for each car, just a bit of a 'clippety-clop' as the cars go round the track. We tend to leave it off and get maximum speed down the straights. So if you've got kids over the age of five (younger and they seem to lack the finesse to control the speed) and want a nostalgic trip back to your own childhood, grab one of these tracks. It's got everything you'll remember but it's much easier to build and race.
