 Promised so much ... delivered so little July 5, 2008

What a great idea this, 4 cars racing on a 2 lane track and changing lanes!
Pity that the number of Digital enabled cars is very few, 3 came with this set - because thats all there is at the moment if you ignore the F1 cars.
Problem with the set is that the changeover pieces are terribly built, cheap and nasty! As this is what the set is bought for it makes the high price simply not worth paying!
The fault lies with how the changeovers work, they operate by a bent metal rod being pulled and pushed in an electric coil .... but, the cheap design means that the rods come adrift from the operating levers. This means that the switchovers stop working - all the time!
Pathetic quality and design ... wait until these teething troubles have been sorted out is my advice!

Excellent set for the money. It does seem alot but remember what your getting!
This is the only set im aware of that has 2 lane changing areas. These pieces of track are about 15 on there own! most sets just come with the one change on a straight where as this has a change on the corner, perfect for some overtaking on the inside :). Great set!
The cars can take a beating but if you fly off into the fireplace surround a few times (as i have)i can see bits coming off. The wing on the aston martin has already come off :(
It worth mentioning that the lap counter that amazon has paired up with this set is NOT for use with digital Scalectrix sets... That counter is designed for normal (none digital) scalectrix sets and counts laps for each track, so if a car has changed lanes like they will in digital, (thats the idea...) the counter will get it wrong!
If you are buying ANY digital set, not just the super GT .. PLEASE DON'T BUY THIS LAP COUNTER!!!!! its very wrong of amazon to put this with the digital set..
there is a digital lap counter, sadly amazon dont seem to have it. Its in shops though and is around 40
hope this helps someone :)
 Great fun but all the cars broke December 30, 2007

This is by far the best Scalextric ever. It is great fun, only problem is within one day of having it, the spoilers on all cars borke off, wing mirrors, lights. Problem is the cars change change lanes and drive on the same lane, they can drive in opposite directions, its like bumpers cars and these can't take the beating that any kid would give this type of toy.
