These are always fun to play with, whether you're young or old! If you couldn't afford to go to the races, this was the next best thing! These are really fast little rollers that only take 90 seconds to recharge. "fastest 90 seconds of your life" was the slogan. Originally made 1970-1972, these were really hot at the time. On the track, they actually pass each other as if someone is inside the cars. Personally i would buy more than one track to make a large and fun one. They have been clocked to go nearly 14 mph. pretty fast for a self-moving hot wheel! They can run about 5 minutes on one charge. They have redline wheels and there are 22 models, some with different colors. Youtube has lots of videos of these things in action and the world's largest sizzlers track of about 2000 feet!
I collect them I think they came out in 67 68 redline hot wheels had more less everyone my dad would go to La Mirada swap meet in California Mattel factory was nearby all the flaws Redlines workers would take them to the flea market and sell them for a dollar that had not been packaged yet or even put in stores yet good times then eventually I started collecting the sizzler hot wheels not too long ago I found a bunch of redline hot wheels still in packages from a Shell gas station used to give them away back 1960’s fill up your tank get a red line hot wheel
