BluTrack - Ramp Set

I found the ramp set to be better than many. Without the ramp set, I had a really hard time doing loops. I was using the straight metal braces that come with the track, and I'd tape the brace to the floor (one brace at start of loop and one at the end), and I always have to fiddle with it before I can get the loop to work. Of course, this frustrates my son, so I had stopped using the track as much.With the ramp set, I put one ramp as the start and one as the end of the loop and taped those to the floor. This setup provided much more stability to the entire loop. I had it working the first time without having to fiddle with things.You can hook 2 ramps together with a nice little clip. My only complaint is that doing so creates a perfect 90 degree bend. Not really what I would expect.Overall, I think the ramp set is a valuable addition to our BluTrack set and am very happy with the purchase.

these ramps were extremely helpful for my kids who were figuring out the physics of the blutrack. this ramps were the guidance they needed to make it functional and much easier to change up without being frustrated with the over flexibility of the blutrack. not a 5 star review because i only wish they were a little heavier. they are too light and move too easily. we had to figure some way to weigh them down without changing the effectiveness of the loop.

Track works great! This is the second track I bought. The first when to my grandsons and they enjoy it. The second one I got for my chruch and we used it for a family night at are church. We put together a family night on the Memorial Day 500 race where we had everyone bring their own cars and had age group races. The event was one of the best attended family event. So I recommend this not only for grandsons but for your churches and scouting groups. Memorial Day 500 race did include chill cook off, drinks, and grilled food.

I purchased this for my six yr old son who loves Hotwheels. I wanted to try it because I have been very discouraged with the quality and durability of current Hot Wheels tracks which seem to break too quickly with normal use. I get the purpose, of trying to work to figure out what the best configuration is and making the track work. That part is great. The cars do do loops if you get the loops in the right places and supported correctly. Gave it three stars for two reasons- 1) Its just a long blue wrapped up track, and I don't think the price point is right for the value and 2) The metal bar thing is helpful to keep the track pinned down, and there needs to be more than one of those included, more like 4 so you have more flexibility and choice. The track was pretty pliable and worked fine from that perspective. I keep my house at about 69/70 and had no issues and didn't need to put it in the bath tub. Also, the blue ramp things need to hold the track in place a lot better. I think the price point should be 20-25 bucks.

Not necessary but they are helpful. We couldn't get our matchbox cars to do 2 loop d loops on their own but then we got the ramps and now its possible.Overall BluTrack is a great toy, often we find ourselves packing toys up and storing them away within a month of purchase as the kids stop using it but BluTrack is an exception. Hooks up well to the wall, any door, and of course glass. Love how fast the cars go, loop d loops are doable even without the supports (we bought t

We purchased the Blu track a year ago and it immediately became a household favorite. We thought the ramps would be a good addition to the track, which they are, if you have the patience and time to figure out the perfect ramp equation. First off you only get 1/2 of the ramps shown in the picture above, so you will never be able to create the image that accompanies them without another set...and even then getting the inertia for a car to go through it could be a small miracle. The quality does not compare to that of the ramp, they are thin plastic with plastic clips to attach the ramp to. I am still debating if having 2 sets would make them better or add to the general frustration and difficulty of making a ramp and loops that work. The ramps are OK, but require adult help to get loops working, so with them we have lost the independent play and thinking that made the track so great.

Bought this for my three year old as a COVID-19, shelter in place, something new to play with toy. He loves it, and has played with it every day for over two weeks. The loop de loop attachments are a must however.

Run your cars anywhere? Never be limited by your track parts? How cool does that sound?Too cool, apparently, for reality. First, the overall idea is sound. You get a big length of flexible track that you can use to run your cars anywhere. Almost. What they don't tell you, and that you might have forgotten since physics, is that because the track is flexible, if it is not supported VERY well throughout it's run, it sucks most of the momentum out of the cars and they don't really go anywhere. Loops, seemingly the slam dunk of this system, are all but impossible without exacting set-ups and troubleshooting (they actually suggest you use two ramps and a stack of books to wedge a little support arm that holds the top of the track.)What really is disappointing are the aforementioned accessories supplied to theoretically provide the rigidity needed to build an effective and fun course. They're really poorly built and fall off the track if you sneeze, requiring more and more tweaking. It honestly seems like the track was all this inventor had in them. Then they got lazy and tried to build some performance patches and just gave up. The track also warps pretty easily and because the top and bottom lanes are of a fixed and equal length, making banked turns is pretty tricky (read not fun)too.I could go on, but suffice to say, really think hard about his one. If you want to geek out on physics problems with your kids, this might be a interesting option. If you wanted that no-hassle track you can throw down anywhere and do cool things with, well...sorry to inform you, but that track is still in development.
