This product is great. I've been looking for the 'old fashioned' hotwheels track without all the 'bells and whistles' for my 4 year old grandson. This is easy to use, and the suction cup allows the track to be mounted to any slick surface. I do wish the old style c-clamp were available to attach to a bookshelf or table top. One of the best things about the track is that it is all one piece and can be rolled up to store to bring to gramma's house.

I gave this to my six-year old boy a few days ago and he loves it. So far, he has just set it up with one jump and raced all of his cars on it, particularly his Pixar Cars. That's been good for several hours. We set up the first loop last night, and it worked well. He has not treated it as a real "construction" toy for building tracks but I'm guessing that will come. Some other reviewers had trouble getting the track to lay flat but we have had no problems, and we live in a cold-weather state. I bought it with the extra set of 4 ramps, which has been good.

Product review of BluTrack - 18 ft. Starter Kit

This is a great product. Easy to use and easy to setup. My 5 year old loves it. Much easier than Hotwheels. We like that it has few parts, no track to put together, no pieces to lose. It would have been nice if it would come with at least 2 or 3 stiffener bars in every set. I ended up buying an extra pack from the manufacturer's website. These bars make it much easier to set up stunts.

My 4 yr old's favorite birthday gift this year!
Posted 5/9/2008

Rating: 

I did a lot of comparison shopping before settling on BluTrack to fulfill my son's birthday request for a race track. It offered side-by-side gravity propelled racing with limitless track configurations and expansions, and compact storage. The width of the track also works with a variety of 1:64 scale cars (including the diecast characters from Cars).
BluTrack has so far completely met my high expectations. Most importantly, my son has been thrilled to race his cars. He needs very little help setting up and putting it away. He is quickly discovering how to make single loops and use books and boxes to make jumps and hills and is create obstacles with small wooden & plastic blocks. I'm sure we will be purchasing more track stabilizers and loop ramps as his track designs get more intricate.

I bought this for my 18 month old twins and it has been a big hit. We have a ton of old matchboxes and I was looking for a track they could use with the cars. What I like about the track: it is easy for the kids to put the cars on the track, it uses gravity so even the youngest car racers can figure out how it works, you can make almost limitless configurations using objects around the house, it doesn't break apart when a toddler accidentally trips over it. The only thing that I would improve is the stiffener bar with the velcro didn't really grip the carpet well enough, but it was easily solved with a few heavy books.

Seems a little long and twisty, but I hae never seen one before. The cars soot right down, stay in their lane and make it over all the hills.

Easy to use and set up. The tracks didn't straighten out right away because they were cold, but as soon as they warmed up they were ready to use.

Product review of BluTrack - 18 ft. Starter Kit
Posted 12/26/2008 by Matthew Buscemi

Rating: 

A little pricey for what it is. Also the track will not stay flat after being stored in box for extended periods. (Note from Fat Brain Toys: When rolled and exposed to cold temperatures BluTrack may not lay flat when unrolled. To correct, simply submerge BluTrack in a bathtub of hot water and it will flatten easily for play.)

BluTrack is fantastic!

This track is easy to put together/configure and has been a lot of fun for all of us (yes, we adults LOVE it)!! We bought the ramps that create the loops and have had lots of fun configuring the track. The only thing is that we needed cars that are heavier (e.g. Matchbox) as compared with other cheaper brands, as they work better and go farther! Overall, this is a great product and I highly recommend it!

A good choice, but needs adult help to inspire imagination.

We didn't have any trouble with bumps like some (and we live in northwest Iowa and bought in winter). Lots of possibilities , but like I said you need to play with this with your kids at firts to help inspire their imagination.

Great pricing at Fat Brain Toys; better than the price available at the Blu Track website. Very basic (not paying for fluff) toy, which is a hard find. The reusable packing makes for easy clean-up and storage of the toy.

I ordered this product for my 3 year old son for his birthday. He loves cars. He spent a better part of the day playing with this along with his 5 year old sister. We are still trying to figure out making loops & such, but just propping the track from a table and having the cars jet down 18 feet across the room is entertainment enough right now. This is one of those toys that will be a staple in our toy room. The added bonus is that it rolls up and can be easily put away. Then rolled back out again. Brilliant!!!

BluTrack Was A+
Posted 5/1/2008

My grandson, David, loves his BluTrack! It's easy to set up and store. It has a suction cup at one end which can be attached to a window and then you can stretch it out. You can also put boxes, piles of books, etc., under the track to create hills and ramps. It lets David use his imagination a lot. He loves to race his cars! Then you just roll it up and put it away.

I purchased this toy for my 2-3 year old son as he has about 20 diecast cars from the Disney Cars movie.
I was glad to see that most of the cards runs on the track great as I was concerned that they were not 1/64 scale.
The true test of a Christmas present is if the child is still playing with it after Christmas and so far it looks like a keeper! Really waiting for the summer months to come so we can play with it outside.
His other cousins loves playing with the track too!

My 3-year-old son loves the track. I was looking for a track that was simple enough for his age level yet allows him to be creative. It's a toy that will grow with him as he learns to make hills and loops. I can easily see him still playing with this three years from now. The two-track design is perfect for playing with a friend.

It has been fun to think of new ways to use the track. My son is three and so far it is the parents setting up the track and him using it. He loves it. The cars run smoothly on it. The started kit works for hills and bumps, but it does not do well with loops. The attachments in the more advanced kits are needed for loops. Overall it has provided hours of entertainment.

Endless fun!

We love the BluTrack! Its flexibility allows for infinite track configurations, the two lanes are fun for racing, and you can set it up anywhere. It has literally provided hours of fun for us and our kids and we know there are many many more to come!

Can't get the track to flatten out. So the cars don't really stay on the track. The website says to soak it in hot water - it's an 18' track. Seems odd to me, but I plan to try so it's not a complete bust.
