Default Only 20 shopping days to x-mas.

How about this for yourself or the degenerate Horse Racing fan/player in your life.

I bought this for my 4 year old son. Man, I can't wait for him to open this on Christmas morning.

If you're going to get a gift, might as well splurge...

Thank you e-street for posting a link where to get it. My little boy really loves horses and the races, when I suggested it to my wife I was kind of expecting her to say "are you crazy, what the hell is wrong with you? He is 4!. Enough is enough! Isn't the pictures of Secretariat and Left Bank in his room enough?" But she was on board right away and ordered it the next day. Thank God, once he opens it maybe I can throw that F'n Candyland in the garbage. I hate the damn game!

Bob, this might be just what the doctor ordered. It'll feed the addiction, but will eliminate the daily barn fees.

It's taking up the whole dining room table.

Grey horse is the ****. I'm having trouble "tuning" the other horses with the mini screw driver (can't tell if I am actually turning the screw). I've got the one with the red jock nearly as fast as the grey, but the other two suck.

Oh yeah, my girls love it....

My son got at least 30 toys for Christmas and he played with that track ALL DAY. He didn't even bother taking anything else out of the box. It was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. He would have been happy if that was the only thing he got. As far as the game goes, I thought that it was OK. I wouldn't advise switching the jocks, because once they come off they are hard to put back on. We had a couple of spills today and a couple of jocks were holding on for dear life. I am happy to report that everyone is ok. As far as the horses go, the chestnut is like Secretariat compared to the rest of the field. I think that the black horse is lame, he can't run a step. We named him The Black Monkey. Keep tinkering with the screw, you can feel when it is tightening up, but I would be careful not to over do it. Just A little each time. I did have alot of fun watching and playing it with my son, we both had a ball.
