Hi. Is there a specific 'type' of Hot Wheels car that I need to look for to use with this toy - are they all the same? Thanks in Advance.

Cars are flung by a spinning rubber wheel rubbing the side of the cars, Any car with flat sides equal GOOD FLING. Open wheel cars like Arachnophobia or Dracula NOT SO GOOD.

One comes with the toy and is good. My boys have used most of their Hot Wheels cars on the toy and some work better than other. It is simply trial and error in that regard. Hope that helps you.

No and No...this is a better toy but still cheaply made, not serviceable. Look into hobby grade cars..

On rcmania.com they reviewed this and it was a pistol-like controller. I am not for sure this is the same type of rc car since that one was a different color than showed here and I don't have the car either. You can double check on rcmania.com if you would like to make sure it is the same car. If it is the pistol-like controller it is a little hard to use, but still quite managable.(Just a fan of rcmania.com and happened to watch the video, make sure you double check).

I believe it will work with any cars that are the same size or smaller than the typical hot wheels. You just use the clamp to fix the top part of the track up high, we use the second shelf of a bookshelf, and the cars then launch down via gravity. As long as the car rolls and fits within the width of the track, it will work.

That is the one downside to this awesome buggy... hard to find parts. This website has them but shipping is absurd. http://www.nitrorcx.comApparently the LC Racing buggy is identical and you can use those parts. Never tried it myself.

I have found that all Hot Wheels brand cars work with this set... The cars from the Disney movie Cars seem to be a little wider and sometimes don't fit the track well. Hope this answers your question.

I don't know,we just ordered it and it came with the emergency vehicles, which were what we wanted. However, they quit running after about 5 minutes of play, so when I requested a return & replacement for them, we were transferred over to QVC & I think we are just getting the racecars. At this point, I don't care if it is the racecars as long as they work.

Hello Jennifer!The Car only works with nitro that you can find in specialized hobby stores. Do not use normal gasoline, it can break your Car. Good Luck!

I tried many types of cars last week and the matchbox cars DO NOT work with the elevator lift--they just roll right out and fall. They only cars that seemed to work for us were the originals. Sorry my answer doesn't seem to match what others are saying...We tried it for hours!

I have both hot wheels and matchbox cars and they all work fine. Its more the shape that can be a problem. Only normal shaped cars will work with this.

Hi Denise. It's not any scale or track ready. I asked if it will fit ho model railway and they said yes. But the car itself is actually bigger then a g gauge train. Lol. It's about 300 mm long and about 150 mm wide. It's just a toy car that has the rail wheels tucked up ready for use as in the movie. But they don't move up or down. Anyways it just a big model car with a bad description. If you want one ill sell you mine for half the price I paid, it's never been opened and probly never will. Lol. Ok I hope I helped you not fall into the same trap I fell into. As I thought it'd look awesome running around my track. Ok. Maxx Hi Denise. It's not any scale or track ready.

Josh - I'm sorry, but I really don't know. We have the Little People Wheelies Ramps and Raceways. I would imagine they made them to fit all though. Email Fisher-Price would be my suggestion.

Yes! My five year old twins send both Matchbox and Hotwheels cars down the ramp and they work brilliantly. They go flying down and whizz around the corners...lot's of fun! They also send marbles racing down! We have two sets, one on top of the other to make a really tall track for the cars...they rarely use the trains with it anymore. So yes..both Matchbox and Hotwheel cars work extremely well on this track.

Yes. All hot wheels tracks can be added to other sets. The only limits are ones imagination.

Not really, in the precise sense of the meaning of "work" - the lanes are a bit narrow for those cars. They'll go down the ramps and around the curves, but they'll tend to fall off rather than make it all the way to the bottom, as they're quite heavy and a bit too wide for the lanes. Standard gauge Matchbox and Hot Wheels cars are really what "work" best. All that said, my kids have never been troubled by the fact that the Cars and Cars 2 cars won't make it all the way down - they put all of the various cars up and down the garage, even those much bigger than the Disney ones. There's not much comparable out there, and the gauge issue isn't critical/fatal, so I'd recommend going ahead with this - ours is still going strong.
