“The race cars in 6395 Victory Lap Raceway (1988) reprised the design of the racer from this set. One of the included cars, the one with the number "1", has the same color scheme as the Sprint Racer but lacks the Shell stickers.”

BrickEconomy Member Review
“The Sprint Racer is an impulse set from 1988, featuring standout details like Shell-printed tiles and an aerodynamic design with a rising slope profile. Despite its small size, it offers a surprising amount of charm with its classic yellow, red, and white color scheme and a nostalgic minifigure equipped with a white helmet and blue visor. The inclusion of alternate model ideas adds extra play value.”
