10 Best Race Car Track Toys 2024

The distinct feature of the Ontel Magic Tracks is the amazing glowing 220-piece racetrack that can bend and flex. The Ontel Magic 11ft speedway is so versatile that kids can roll them up like a mat when they’re done playing with them.

The serpentine and ergonomic design of this race track set allows the track to bend, twist, flex, and curve in 360ᵒ as kids race the lone car around the track. Kids will build cognitive and motor skills as they snap together track pieces to fully customize the track before playing. This means that kids can change the design of the track into different forms and shapes, including a hamster wheel.

You can also buy extra tracks to extend the length of the Ontel Magic Tracks. Snapping the serpentine tracks together is easy for children to accomplish. The LED light-up car is fast and the batteries can last for hours. This set runs on 2 AA batteries.

The car’s super-bright 5 LED lights, including the glow in the dark track, allows kids to enjoy the toy at night as well as in the day. To get the best result for the track’s neon glow in the dark feature, expose the track to direct sunlight for a while.

Although this product comes with just one car, the Ontel Magic track and cars are interchangeable with Super Snap Speedway, and [amazon url="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07ZQ7PHL6″]Build-A-Road[/amazon]. What you get is 20 track pieces, 78 decal stickers, and one car. When put together, there are ten tiles per piece.

The track sides are high enough to keep the cars in. The cars can drive just fine on tiled floors, etc. as well as on the Magic tracks allowing kids to compromise and just go with their imaginations. Just be sure to sweep the floors and carpets or the wheel spindles could get clogged by debris, which can quickly stop the motors from working.

The Hot Wheels Track Builder Total Turbo Takeover Track Set is an amazing motorized racing track set for kids who love speed and stunt racing. This race car track set is part of the Hot Wheels Track Builder System. The Hot Wheels Track Builder System is comprised of a variety of race car track sets and individual pieces of track.

All the pieces of the Hot Wheels Track Builder System are compatible with each other effectively giving children the freedom to design, create, and get imaginative with their very own track challenges. This race track can be adjusted for a head-to-head racing contest or re-configured by flipping a switch on the booster to send the cars racing off in opposite directions.

One of the highlights of the Hot Wheels Track Builder Total Turbo Takeover Track Set is its compatibility with other sets in the Hot Wheels Track Builder System series, making it possible to extend the tracks and racing options available to the player. Shoppers who choose this race track kit will be rewarded with enough pieces in the box to set up the track in a variety of ways.

The variety goes even further when this Takeover Track Set is combined with other compatible models. For example, the Hot Wheels Wall Tracks racing model has compatible joiners with this Takeover Track set.

This Total Turbo Takeover model features two loops, one pull-back button to launch the car, and a battery-powered booster that powers the car through the second loop. The track also includes a plastic piece that flips up into the air when a car hits it, as well as a slope with “boulders” that fall one at a time when the car passes underneath.

The initial launcher, before the 2-booster sets in, can be adjusted in three different settings allowing kids to experiment with different combinations to see what works best. The tracks feel smooth, sturdy, and flexible. The cars in this set do not have similar AI functionality as the Anki Overdrive Starter Kit, but they still perform exciting stunts.

Setting up and dismantling the Hot Wheels Track Builder Total Turbo Takeover Track Set is much easier than it looks. Kids will enjoy personalizing the tracks to suit the whims of their imaginations. You also get an instruction manual in the box with templates of different track layouts for kids to explore. The only letdown is that this Total Turbo Takeover Set comes with just one car, but kids won’t mind that much since you can’t race multiple cars at a time on this track anyway.

The TOP BRIGHT Wooden Race Track Car set comes in a toddler-friendly design weighing only 1.6 lbs. and measuring 88.86 inches wide, 3.81 inches long, and 10 inches high. This toy is a wooden product but only in part. The race track pieces are made of plastic while the cars are made of wood but with plastic tires.

We recommend adult supervision of children playing with this set due to the small pieces and the toddler age group for whom the toy is targeted. However, cars are not so small that they can easily pass through a child’s throat.

This is a well-designed educational toy featuring brightly colored cars and ramps with rattling sounds that stimulates sensory perception in children as well as introduces them to colors.

Wood is a fantastic fabrication material for a manually-operated toy such as the TOP BRIGHT Wooden Race Track Car. Wooden car toys lack the electronic features found in motorized cars effectively encouraging children to use their imagination a lot more than they would need to when playing with electric toys.

While the wheels of the cars and the tracks are made of plastic, everything else in the TOP BRIGHT Wooden Race Track Car is made of wood. The plastic wheels, track, and bearings of the cars allow them to smoothly and quickly go down the tracks.

The cars are numbered from 1 to 4, allowing kids to practice their numbering skills as they play. Playing with this toy will also encourage kids to hone developmental skills such as hand-eye coordination, logic, visual tracking, focus, cooperation, and motor skills.

The plastic and wooden parts are strong and of good quality, BPA-free, and colored with bright non-toxic water-based paint. The manufacturer assures this toy has been fully tested to the highest US ASTM F 963 and European EN71 toy safety standards.

This set is sturdy enough for kids to play with it indoors and outdoors. The sturdiness of the car wheels is impressive considering that wheels are always the first parts of a toy car to get wrung or chewed off. The track design incorporates four ramps, one parking lot, and four toddler ramp racers. No assembly is required except for the removable parking lot at the top of the ramps. The set comes in a sturdy colorful box for easy storage or gifting.

For fans of Jurassic Park, there’s no better racing track toy to turn your home or backyard into your private Jurassic World. This set as with most race car track toys is best used on smooth surfaces preferably indoors, although the flexibility of the KKONES Dinosaur World Road Race makes them great for outdoor play as well. Kids can enjoy this set solo or with family and friends.

The KKONES Dinosaur World Road Race comes with 273 toy pieces including 8 dinosaur creatures, 4 extra car tire wheels, 2 dinosaur cars, 8 signposts, 2 slopes, 1 bumping road, 1 bridge, 1 door, 1 ball, I tree, 1 crossroad, and 240 track pieces. The many fun accessories in this set are guaranteed to engage children and also help them build motor skills, hand-eye coordination, color perception, interaction, and cooperation with other “teammates”.

Fans of dinosaurs and the Jurassic Park movie series will love the challenge of building personalized dinosaur-themed race tracks. When the track is all set, the dinosaur-styled cars can drive up and down the ramps, cross bridges, ram through doors, pass across crossroads, drive through bumpy roads, and even collide with each other.

The cars also come with an LED light-up feature that adds to the excitement of looking into the eyes of a fiery dinosaur. There are eight pieces of dinosaur figures in this set, each a different species of dinosaur, inspiring curiosity and educating kids about the names and types of each dinosaur. For parents looking for toys that are equal parts fun and educational, the KKONES Dinosaur World Road Race is a great choice.

The tracks are flexible, brightly painted in jungle colors and textures, and easy to set up. The tracks’ flexibility promotes its customizability. Kids have the freedom to just get creative with whatever ways they wish to snap the track pieces together. You will be amazed at the ease by which the signposts (stickers) go up and the track pieces neatly snap together.

This racing set is made with safe non-toxic, high-quality, lightweight, and durable materials. The dinosaur cars can be moved along the tracks without batteries but they run real fast and light up with batteries in them. Each of the cars requires 1 AA battery. The rest of the set pieces including the palm trees and signposts combine to give this race car track toy a tangible dinosaur-themed park vibe.

Even if you don’t already have any Anki Overdrive racing set such as the Anki Overdrive Starter Kit, the Anki Overdrive: Fast & Furious Edition is still an excellent interactive race car track toy to invest in and tremendously enjoy.

You will find that combining the [amazon url="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00V6951I0″]Overdrive Starter Kit[/amazon] with this Fast & Furious edition leaves you with extra tracks and cars as well as simultaneous access to both apps (the Starter Kit and Fast & Furious apps). But still, this model provides plenty of engaging gameplay on its own. The Anki Overdrive is an app-based track racing game that syncs your mobile devices to the Anki toy supercars.

The system is intuitive so that the player can easily learn and quickly begin to enjoy the game. The cars are robotic supercars that get “smarter” as you get better at racing the tracks. The Anki app only works with select Android and iOS devices. You can check out this Anki webpage for a list of compatible mobile devices.

The Anki Overdrive: Fast & Furious Edition gives kids the excitement of racing along with or against the famous Fast & Furious Toretto crew members. The game can be played solo against AI-powered adversaries or kids can play with friends and family members. Young players will enjoy triggering explosions, completing missions, and more importantly, building sensory and mental acuity.

Players can shoot at each other through their Wi-Fi enabled mobile devices slowing down the vehicle under attack. This F & F set comes with 10 magnetic track pieces that can be snapped together to form 8 different race track styles. The car models include Dom’s weaponized built-for-speed Dodge Charger, and Hobb’s armor-plated Navistar MXT truck from the F & F movies.

These supercars are equipped with optical sensors, dedicated 50MHZ CPU, and high-performance motors that deliver one-millimeter maneuvering accuracy. Anki keeps releasing upgrades for their Overdrive series allowing players to upgrade the weapons and other functionalities of the game. While Anki has ceased product development and manufacturing, Anki has stated that it will provide long term support to maintain the operation and functionality of the existing products and apps.

The versatility of this F & F edition allows for the tracks and accessories of all the versions in the Anki Overdrive universe to be interchangeable alongside the regular software upgrades and add-ons. Driving the cars on carpets and floors is tempting but that can expose them to traction issues as hairs and other such debris can clog the wheels and motors.

If you only have this F & F edition, you still get two cars and enough track to make a loop, although the fun is undeniably heightened with extra tracks that fill your room. Kids can easily snap the magnetic track pieces together and the pieces are also easy to detach.

This Anki Fast & Furious Edition includes: 1 Dom’s Ice Charger supercar, 1 Hobbs’ MXT truck, 3 straight track pieces, 1 exclusive Power Zone track piece, 6 90º curved track pieces, 12 guardrails, 2 riser pieces, 1 four-car charging cable, and 1 tire cleaner. My only disappointment is that Dom’s avatar doesn’t look realistic enough, but who cares? I know it’s Dom.

The distinct feature of the Hot Wheels Super 6-lane Raceway is its uncomplicated race track design and broad lengthy dimensions. The concept for this race car track toy is simple; race the cars down the extra-long bright orange painted track from the starting line to the finale.

The Hot Wheels brand under the creative leadership of the American toymaker known as Mattel and his good friend Ira Gilford has been delivering innovative die-cast racing fun for children since the 1960s. After all these, the Hot Wheels race car track toys continues to impress and engage the imagination.

This Hot Wheels Super 6-lane Raceway model comes with more than 8 ft. multi-lane racing track with dimensions measuring 4.25 inches long, 36 inches wide, 15 inches high, and weighing a decent 0.06 lbs. The kit comes with six different kinds of cars that kids will enjoy racing down the sprawling six lanes to see which of the cars is first to reach the finish line.

The toy also features lighting effects to stimulate and add to the racing thrill, as well as realistic fun sound effects that announce the winning car amidst the sound of roaring cheers and applause from the “crowd”.

While the Hot Wheels Super 6-lane Raceway features an uncomplicated design with none of the twists and curves you get in many racing track toys such as the Ontel Magic Tracks, this toy with its bright orange color looks as attractive as it is sturdy. The track and cars are built with very durable materials so you can be assured that kids will use this set and pass them down to their younger siblings.

Also, there are not a lot of race car track toys that come with this many cars in the box. Six cars in the box mean kids can enjoy playing and competing with friends and siblings. The track is easy to set up and you can add extra track strips to customize the tracks if you wish although this stretch of the track offers plenty of racing fun already. Vehicles that work best on Hot Wheels Track Sets are regular 1:64 scale sports cars or sedans. Vehicles that usually do not work are vans, trucks, or buses; anything too bulky or heavy.

You might worry about storage when you look at the long stretch of this Hot Wheels racing track but storing the set is easy. The entire track can be easily folded up for easy transport and on the go play. There is even a built-in basket for keeping the six cars with the track.

The Hot Wheels Criss Cross Crash Motorized Track Set is a remarkable shift from the uncomplicated design of the Hot Wheels Super 6-lane Raceway. This race track set from the Hot Wheels brand is a criss cross model designed to help kids sharpen their cognitive skills, stimulate perception, build concentration, focus, and spark the imagination.

The fairly complex design of this track incorporates hairpin turns, intersections, and a crash zone built into the 16-foot race track. The crash zone comprises four intersecting tracks that come together to deliver a satisfying collision enhanced by the set’s motorized booster. The track also comes with a car feeder ramp that is there to elevate the racing thrill.

This is a motorized race track set powered by [amazon url="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MH4QKP6″]Four D cell batteries[/amazon] although the toy can still be used non-motorized, albeit with limited functionality. The Hot Wheels Criss Cross Crash Motorized Track Set measures 29.13 inches long, 29.13 inches wide, and 7.87 inches high. The entire racing set weighs 1.85 lbs.

The set includes spaces throughout the entire track set acting as a safeguard for the kids, as well as parking spaces that allow kids to store the car with the track. With all the twists and intersections put together, there are a total of 8 tracks on the Hot Wheels Criss Cross Crash Motorized Track Set.

The track is sturdy as you can always expect from any Mattel Hot Wheel brand. The car feeder on the track offers kids the option of actually lining up the Hot Wheel cars and prepare for total wipeouts or near misses. Although this set comes with just one die-cast Hot Wheels car, kids can line up lots of Hot Wheels cars into the car feeder to get them on the track. Other race track car brands including some Hot Wheels car models are not compatible with this Hot Wheels edition.

When shopping for extra cars for this track, keep in mind that the car you choose should have similar sizes- height, width, and weight- to the Hot Wheels die-cast car that comes with this set. Cars that are too wide won’t fit into the Hot Wheels track. One of the reasons this race car track set is popular with children is the storage convenience and the ease of assembling and disassembling the set.

The loud bangs and crashes deliver half of the fun of this toy although kids are also bound to be fascinated for hours by the criss cross maneuvers, motorized boosters, hairpin turns, and 4-way loops.

This track set features a stadium design with a parking expanse for the Pixar-themed cars in the center and the actual race track on the sides of the arena. Kids can also race the cars in the center of the arena if they wish as long as the set is placed on a smooth surface such as a table or hardwood floor.

This Disney Pixar Cars 3 Ultimate Florida Speedway is a sprawling 5 ft-long race track measuring an impressive four inches in length, 30 inches in width, and 24 inches in height. The set comes with one Pixar car (1:55 scale Lightning McQueen vehicle) although you can easily [amazon url="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06WGRDBP5″]buy extra cars[/amazon] from Disney/Pixar’s nearly one hundred collections of die-cast vehicles compatible with this race track set.

The Anki Overdrive Starter Kit provides children with a racing experience that is on a whole other level. This concept is several notches higher than the typical cars and a racing track in the box we’re all used to.

What we have here is an app-based road war-inspired racing system incorporating Artificial Intelligence that makes the cars robotic supercars. The tracks are customizable into 8 different types of racing battlegrounds including an overpass, a loopback, capsule, Quadra, micro loop, hook, wedge, and point styles.

These AI-powered supercars work by scanning codes on the track to learn their position on the track’s layout. If this system reminds you of the Death Race movie series, you’re right on track. The cars also come with weapons and power-up features with which they can arm themselves and each other. Your car will deactivate for a few seconds when it runs out of health. And those weapons? Yes, the vehicles battle each other. Kids that love Death Race and the Fast and Furious movies will just love this toy.

The self-aware robotic cars are smart enough to master whatever track you build. The better kids get at racing the cars, the smarter the cars become.

Plus, the track is not waterproof so it’s advisable to use just a tiny amount of water when cleaning the tracks.

The Anki Overdrive Starter Kit is an excellent racing game that can be enjoyed playing against the robotic cars or with up to 4 friends or family members. However, each of the 4 players will need a mobile device to control the cars. The compatible devices are iPhone 4s and newer, iPad mini and newer, and various Androids. You will also need to set up an Anki account per person to save your game progress.

The Anki website and customer service have you covered for whatever troubleshooting or hardware needs you might have. Also, the continuous software updates promote the versatility and long-lasting appeal of this toy.

The only letdown about this toy is the battery life that offers up to 25 minutes of playtime on a full charge that takes 5 to 10 minutes to achieve. However, this is not that much of a letdown considering that 10 minutes is a rather short time to get a full battery charge.

The Anki Overdrive Starter Kit is versatile allowing owners of the original Anki Drive cars to also race them on this Starter Kit track. The Starter Kit includes two robotic supercars, six curved track pieces, four straight track pieces, two riser pieces, 1 four-car charging system, and 1 tire cleaner. The future of play has arrived.
