Turbo-Boost at Every Lap
The Criss Cross Track Set is designed to give cars a slingshot-like boost with every lap. As soon as a car makes the looped circuit--swoosh!--off it goes again with accelerated speed on another banked loop.

This turbo-boost effect is made possible by ingeniously simple mechanics. Once the car is inside the central chute, spinning rubber wheels grab the car by the sides and launch it around the course. After a car's momentum returns it after a trip around a loop, the car is propelled in another direction around yet another loop. When you have two or more cars on the track at once, they swirl wildly around the center platform.

Wait, Wait, Wait--Crash!
Add a second car to the track and it's just a matter of time before both cars cross paths in explosive fashion. When that happens, it's ka-boom time. The dramatic crash is a big part of the fun this track offers.

Easy-to-Read Instructions and Easy Set Up
Kids just learning to read can easily follow the directions that rely on detailed illustrations and arrows to convey the specifics of assembly. As long as kids follow the directions carefully, the track goes together easily. In a matter of minutes, your child will be off to the races.
