Product Description

Editorial Review
Follow that car! Whether you picture yourself in the back of a Hot Wheels taxi or in the front seat of a police cruiser, you can chase the bad guys around this 7-foot, figure-eight track. Two car launchers make sure you get up to speed. The 15 track sections include a four-way intersection, a hill, textured track, and even a spring-loaded road section that can send cars flying into the nearest ravine. Lights and signs are included, and there's even a donut shop for that cop to snack at before the next hair-raising pursuit. The set contains just one Hot Wheels vehicle--you'll need more for a chase, unless you plan to catch up with your own tailpipe. --Richard Farr

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun but poorly made and disappointingly fragile!, October 29, 2001

By	J. Simmons (Hamilton, nj United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Durability:2.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 

We bought this for our 4 year old (now 5) boy. He loves playing with it but gets frustrated that it is so flimsy. The high end of the hill is supposed to be supported by the orange trusses. Well, these will not stay together and certainly don't support the hill part. We have to put a couple of books underneath to prop it up. The car 'shooter' that propels the 'bad guy' car down the hill is difficult for the under 6 crowd to operate. And, as someone else mentioned, DON'T LOSE THE DIRECTIONS! It is difficult to put back together after you take it apart for storage. We finally numbered the pieces on the bottom so we can more quickly put it together by matching the numbered pieces. Overall a fun idea for a toy, but poorly made. I would recommend purchasing a different hot wheels town toy.

2.0 out of 5 stars The worst toy I've ever purchased, May 13, 2003

By	Kathryn Swain (Merrimack, NH United States) - See all my reviews

Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 

I purchased this toy the other day for my 3 yr. old and what a BIG mistake.
The directions are of no help at all when trying to figure out what goes with what. This toy is the cheapiest made toy I've ever seen. Everything falls apart--lights, bridges,track and misc. pieces. When you push the release button the car
barely goes anywhere or falls off the track.
If all their products are made this way this will be our last purchase.
Don't waste your time and money on this item. :(

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing for a Hot Wheels toy, December 26, 2002

By	M. Hill "melihill" (Grapevine, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 

We gave this toy to our son as a birthday present. It was during assmebly that I realized how poorly some of this toy was designed. Slide the plastic signs and traffic signals onto the track - do NOT try to clip them on. The fragile bottoms of these pieces will break if you try to clip them on. The traffic lights do not seem to stay assembled - pieces keep falling off. The orange supports for the elevated section do not stay in place very well. One of the launchers is pretty cool, but it only works properly about 67% of the time.

The set is called "Ultimate Police Chase" but it only includes 1 (police) car!!! How much more would it have cost them to include a car for the bad guys?
