We didn't race the cars, but we did partake in the arcade and the mini bowling. According to my 12 and 13 year old nephew and niece, mini bowling is the best invention in history. I would have to agree with the sentiment. Hubby and I had a blast mini bowling with them! The balls are light and small enough to fit into anyone's hands. The game moved so much faster than regular bowling and was much more exciting. We will be back to play again for sure!
