“These cars have a lot of Technic parts and elements in them; the wheels axles, the rocket action, and other moving parts are all Technic. This adds some complexity to the build but it's satisfying. Additionally, there are lots of stickers. Every decal you see on the autos... More are stickers. Take what you will with that.”

“It was a more realistic dual-car setup, though considering the cars had missile launchers at the back it wasn’t that realistic either. LEGO modified this set in 2011 to reduce the power with which the missiles on the Backyard Blasters’ car was launched. In addition to the... More cars, a finish line and a podium were also included. There were four minifigures in this set.”
