Product Description

The 4-Way Split is back and better than ever. Up to four drivers can compete at one time driving their choice of Mercedes, Porsche or Toyota race cars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun For Four, January 6, 2010

I bought this for my boys (6 & 8) for Christmas after finding the old AFX set from my youth in my folks basement at Thanksgiving.
The newer cars (especially the SRT models) are much faster and stay on the track better, but as BRB says in his review, the child needs some patience or must learn to be patient. My oldest had a friend over who would just gun it and send the cars flying across the room and then lost interest because he didn't like having to go get his car.
I was a bit disappointed that the New-and-Improved track does not stay together as well as the track of my youth, they should really supply the track clips with the set (I ordered a bag of 100 through Amazon already).

One of the cars that came with the set crapped out after only an hour or two of total running time. I have yet to hear back from Racemasters and will update once the issue is resolved.

Overall though, my boys, wife and I can sit for hours racing each other, having four lanes is great fun, it has lap counters but we just chase each other really.

The set comes with the Super G+ cars but Santa brought us each an SRT Daytona or GT40 and we find the SRT cars are faster and hold the track better than the Super G+ cars.
One nice thing is most of my old AFX car bodies will fit on the new chassis so we, err I, can run my old cars.

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible... design or build flaw.. won't assemble. Instead, try AFX 4-Lane Super International Race Set w / Mega G Cars by AFX, August 28, 2011

Bought this for my twin boys. They spent an hour trying to get it to work... track design does not fit together at the end.

We replaced it with AFX 4-Lane Super International Race Set w / Mega G Cars by AFX. That's a much better set.

This race care set is great! I am 68 and the first set I used/played I was 16! The cars are unbelieveably fast on these new sets! I highly recommend AFX. One of the cars was defective but when I called "Racemasters" they sent out another car at no charge! The power supplies/controllers are really powerful enough to provide way more speed than the track can handle and that is a good thing! Thanks again "Racemasters" My grandboys, 5 and 6 really like this set! Here is an update on 2-5 2011. The replacement car I received also failed but I easily contacted "Racemasters" via e-mail and another different car is being sent free of charge. I did not get a "run around" and was treated very nicely. I will continue to do business with Racemasters and special thanks to "Eve"!
