This product arrived in good time for Christmas and was a massive hit with both young and old on Christmas Day. It took them away from the dreaded Wii and Xbox for a good three hours and we had dads and sons arguing over whose car was the fastest, car parts being swapped about to make new cars, cars crashing into each other to the hysterics of those involved and grandads queueing up to get involved. The best value for money present I've ever purchased. I got him the smaller one for his birthday in April next year whilst I was at it. Highly recommended for ages 8 years and above.
