Description[]
The Metal Racer is made of aluminum with a straight body profile, along with SG Sticker response and a large C-bearing for advanced play. However, the yo-yo's most notable feature is the plastic Racer Caps modeled after car wheels. These caps come in two different variations; spoked Wheel Caps for a wheel effect (and a throwback to the original Wheels yo-yo), and Finger Spin Caps for finger spin tricks. Plus, they are also usable on certain yo-yos that use the Freehand Zero's side cap system.
The yo-yo is also compatible with Mod Spacers (by installing a long enough axle) and Performance Rings.
