Q: Hi, please can you tell me what surface this 'racer' runs on - it looks like it would be water? does it run on land? would it work with daylight or does it need strong sun?rnrnlook forward to hearing a bit more about it,rnrn
A: Hi, this racer has wheels and is designed to run on land. The best light source for this model is strong bright sunlight, preferably outside. The solar panels, however, can also be charged from sunlight through a window, and even from a bright lamp (over 60W). The internal battery can even be charged by the solar panels during the day, so the racer can be used at night. I hope this helps. Robyn.
