Build, customize, and race your favorite automotive friends If we learned anything from the hugely popular movies Cars and Cars 2, it''s that friendship is powerful and speed is awesome! And when creating Lightning McQueen Build & Race, we took both those lessons to heart. The friendship part comes in the form of 12 sturdy board-stock cars, including familiar faces like Mater, Francesco, Sally, and, of course, Lightning McQueen. Punch out the cars and pick from the included reusable vinyl stickers to customize them however you like. For the speed part, snap on a set of our amazing, interchangeable, smooth-rolling wheels. Fold out one of the book''s giant racetracks and create your own course by adding sticker road hazards like water hazards, potholes, and oil slicks. When the last car has finally crossed the finish line, store your fleet in the pop-up garage. The entire racing set folds up for easy transport. It''s a totally neat and portable package of fast-moving, high-octane play for kids on the go. See you at Victory Lane!
