Description:

In pitch car, players pick a car, build a track and use the flick technique to propel their racing car to the finish line!

Take the best trajectories using the safety railings, remain on your wheels and don't get out of the track or the penalty won't be far! a beautiful creation, this dexterity game is made of wood and is composed of 16 portions of track, allowing you to make a multitude of different tracks!99

This game entry refers to two nearly identical games which are not compatible with one another.

PitchCar and Carabande are dexterity games where large, wooden, puzzle-like pieces are used to construct a race track that looks very similar to a slot car track when finished.

But instead of using electrons, players use finger-flicks to send small pucks around the track, a la Carrom.999
