Take the fun to a new level with the LED Racing Game Kit, the interactive game made for friends, family and electronics enthusiasts. This complete kit lets you build a race of light and sound on a figure-of-eight track, where up to 4 players can compete in real time. Each player gets a button in a colour of their own, so the action stays clear and easy to follow.

The pre-programmed Nano board included lets you start playing straight away, but it can be reprogrammed for new rules or new game modes, which makes the kit a good fit for classroom projects too. High-brightness WS2812B LEDs and built-in sound effects make every race lively and good to watch, with audio cues that add to the excitement.

Assembly is straightforward even if you are not an expert, thanks to detailed instructions and parts chosen for strength and durability.
