Compared with other Traffic sets

The main reason Racing Cars ranks last among the Traffic sets is that few sets above it have as many copies for sale. It also does not help that its launch price was well over that of most sets above it.

“Some superb racing vehicles have appeared in previous City sets and 60256 Racing Cars continues that tradition. The red and white hatchback looks reasonably realistic and I am particularly impressed with its radiator grille. The second vehicle seems less appealing because of... More its short wheel base but I think packaging these cars together was sensible for play.”

About City Traffic

Traffic is the everyday side of LEGO City, the cars, trucks and service vehicles of ordinary city life, and it started in 2007 with working vehicles such as a cement mixer, a recycling truck and a heavy hauler. Garbage trucks, tow trucks, car transporters and campers come back every few years, and food trucks have become a habit, from pizza vans to an ice-cream truck. The road itself changed in 2021, when 60304 Road Plates brought in snap-together road plates that took over from the printed road baseplates LEGO had made for decades. LEGO's own delivery vans and trucks have also turned up as sets, in the company's red and yellow colours.

Traffic was introduced in 2007 and currently consists of 103 sets. As of today, 7642 Garage is the most valuable Traffic set with an estimated new/sealed value of $364.
Summary
City Traffic Racing Cars set 60256 was released on January 2, 2020, retailing for $30, it has since been retired. New, unopened sets are valued at $30, used ones can be found for $14.
