And here we are with the first set. In the favorite scale in the US, HO and of coursem it had to be from
AFX Racing . This year my proposed set is this one: Super International Our Most Popular Set Gets Even Better!
You'll notice the new look of the box, sure, but the big news is the cars. Four cool new bodies with new liveries – all mounted on our newest, fastest, best handling Mega-G chassis.
No one can match the Mega-G for speed or fun. As for realism - just compare our Formula bodies to any other HO car, you'll see what we mean.
All of this just adds to the already fantastic value. With 86 pieces of track you can make at least 18 different layouts in 4 lane configuration! Of course you can design your own layouts too. You’ve got everything you need to build almost any kind of track in 2 or 4 lanes – all in one box.
Five different types of curved track and 4 different straights, two power packs and four controllers, 6 bridge sections, the list goes on and on. If you wanted to buy all the track, cars and accessories in this set separately, you could pay more than twice as much. That’s what we mean when we are talking about value.
And don’t forget, this is AFX, the highest quality best performing HO slot racing system you can buy anywhere. After all this is the brand that created the hobby and spent almost 60 years improving it. would you expect less? Quality, performance, innovation and value, that’s why AFX is the leader in HO.
