The goal stays the same: flick your car with your finger and make it race around the track faster than the opponents. The biggest perk of this expansion is the ability to stretch the game up to 12 players, perfect for parties, family gatherings, or a weekend with friends. Each new car comes with its own set of track pieces, making the modular board even more varied. The rules are identical to the base game, so veteran players need no learning curve – just pop the extra cars into the box, pick a track layout, hand out the scoring tokens and start flicking. Since the game relies on manual dexterity, the fun comes from watching cars take wild corners or launch off the track in surprising ways. A typical round lasts 30‑40 minutes, but can be shortened or extended depending on how many laps the group wants. Components are solid: durable plastic pieces, scoring markers, and the iconic modular board that snaps together like a puzzle. As an expansion, it does not include the base board, so you’ll need the original PitchCar to play. In short, Extra Cars is the perfect pick for anyone looking to turn a small match into a 12‑player showdown while keeping the same simple, adrenaline‑filled gameplay that made PitchCar a hit. ## FAQ ### How many players does the expansion support?
