That's just a basic run that lets you try for your fastest time while you get used to the controls. On the track, you might want to try the practice mode. There's a free-play mode that puts you in full control and lets you take it anywhere, including off-track.
But let's face it: You want to be the one doing the driving. There's an auto-drive mode, where the cars zip around the track on their own. The triggers on the back are designed more like those you'd find on a slot car control, and the front has an array of colorful buttons for choosing game modes. They have a very video game flair to them: The shape resembles an Xbox gamepad, and the controls include a directional joystick on the left with two shoulder buttons up top. There's no app or anything like that - Hot Wheels AI comes with special controllers that connect at 2.4GHz to each car. Once you've got everything to your liking, it's time to race. That's not the only thing about Hot Wheels AI that can be customized - the shells can be swapped out for new designs, and the wheel rims are interchangeable as well (gold-plated and spinning options not yet available). The track pieces can be arranged in more than 40 layouts, allowing you to add turns and straightaways to your heart's content.
They allow the computer inside to "read" the gradient pattern on the vinyl track so it knows exactly where the car is and can adjust the steering to stay on course even in the middle of a heated race. The 1/32 scale models look like normal toy cars, with snazzy shells not based on any existing real world vehicle - the blue design is called "Fast Fish" and the orange one is "Spin King." Flip them over and underneath you'll find two infrared sensors similar to the ones on a Roomba. Each Hot Wheels AI set comes with two cars, 20 pieces of track and two controllers.
