Go Spidey Go

Slot car racing has historically been a hobby reserved for teenagers and adults. The sets are typically expensive, and are purchased and developed over time, as various components are added to tweak and improve the track setup. Last year, industry-leader Carrera introduced the GO!!! series, an all-in-one racing set for ages 8 and up. Everything you need is included in the box, and the cars are 1:43 scale, so they’re a bit smaller and easier to maneuver along the track.This year, the newest GO!!! set features Spiderman in a classic Marvel Comics battle of good versus evil. The track on this set offers just enough challenges to keep things interesting without frustrating younger drivers. And the cars go FAST – the ground speed equivalent of 450 mph.
