| Is Anki Drive available in Europe? If you have not seen it the concept is it is slot cars without slots and they have weapons. Upgrades can be bought with money earned from battles/races to make your car faster/tougher/meaner. Two of my friends and I played for several hours last night. It is a heck of a blast. I pretty much have the whole set.
Their website is https://anki.com/en
They are featuring the new version Anki Overdrive that will come out in September. It will feature track building much like traditional slot car tracks that come in segments. The tracks currently are a massive roll out about 4.5 feet (~1372mm) wide by 8.5 feet (~2591mm) long.
When playing solo you can have up to 3 other cars controlled by Artificial Intelligence. Different level AI are available. They are damn nasty at high level. We played with the highest level AI last night and it laid waste to my two friends who are new to the game.
I will be getting Anki Overdrive -- I have a long standing love of slot cars and this is off the chains better. | |

| We have normal slot from NINCO and my sons love it, but I guess if they saw this they6 would like it even more, given the concept. I'll make sure they don't | |
