Racing collects the race cars and race tracks of LEGO Town, from 1980 to 1999. Formula 1 cars, stock cars, dragsters, rally cars and go-karts all had sets, and the largest set was 6395 Victory Lap Raceway from 1988, with a grandstand, a pit area and 13 minifigures.

Until the early 1990s many sets carried Shell logos, as LEGO had a long partnership with the oil company, and in 1992 LEGO's own fuel brand, Octan, took its place on the cars and the team trucks. Indy-style racing arrived in 1996 with 6335 Indy Transport and 6337 Fast Track Finish, and the last years were mostly small Formula 1 cars and go-karts. Later racing sets moved to a theme of their own, Racers.
