“The Slammer Turbo from the Lego Technic series belongs to a Power Racers series, in which you can do races with different models. With these models, there is a kind of launching ramp which accelerates the vehicles. Since this racing car is very large, and the launching ramp... More is not so stable, it works very poorly. You have to be very careful, and the acceleration could also be better. It is interesting that the individual Power Racers models can be combined with each other. There are unfortunately no functions. All in all, there are three stars in the overall rating.”

“This red racing car is part of the Speed Slammers line so it is also made to use with the slammer launcher. It has no other functions. This is the largest model in the series and, with the most inertia, seems to perform the best in a race.”
