| LEGO Audio & Braille Building Instructions for the LEGO City set "Race Car". |
| Head for the race circuit for turbo-speed action with the supercool Race Car. Grab your racing helmet, jump aboard and power away from the starting line. Time for a pit stop? No worries! Help the mechanic make a quick repair, then head back to the track for another record-breaking lap to take the winner’s trophy! |
| The box cover shows the orange race car with green airbrushing and the number 8 on the engine hood speeding around the race track. The driver is waving to his mechanic who is waiting on the side of the race track, wrench in hand, tool rack at the ready, waiting for the next pit stop. The LEGO City skyline is in the background of the scene, and the spectator stands surrounding the race track are packed with excited fans. In the middle of a lawn next to the race track the golden trophy with white pedestal is waiting for the winner. Ready, set, go! |
| Open the box. This can be tricky; ask someone to help you! |
| The box contains 1 booklet with visual building instructions, 1 bag with bricks, and 1 loose piece: a wagon bottom 6x10. |
| Carefully open the bag. |
| Before you start building, ask a sighted person to help you sort the pieces by color. This makes finding the correct pieces even easier! |
| First, we will build the mechanic Minifigure. |
| Careful: the legs and heads of the two Minifigures in this set have the exact same shape, but they have different colors and prints. If you want to make sure you have the correct piece, ask a sighted person for help. However, you can also just assemble the Minifigures without help, the visual differences are minor. |

| 1 white, bright yellowish green and earth blue upper part of the body, |
| and 1 white pair of legs. |

| The race car driver Minifigure is finished! Well done! He has a big smile on his face and a small dimple on his chin. He seems excited for his next race! His pants are green, and the jacket has the same colors and decorations as the mechanic's jacket. |
| Next, we will build the trophy. |
