The Mother Road is a press-your-luck race across Route 66 by 2-4 players (5 can play if using the Pink Cadillac expansion). The player pieces are wooden cars, representative of classics found on Route 66 in days gone by -- a canary yellow 60's Mustang; a pale blue Thunderbird from the 50's (with portholes); a cherry red Ford pickup truck (featured in the Eagle's first big hit Take It Easy); and a black Harley-Davidson motorcycle. Lots of Route 66 iconic landmarks are represented by photos and graphic images on the nearly 4 foot long neoprene mat board for the game; and the dice are all in player colors too! Races are usually closely-contested and take 30-45 minutes. The rules are easily learned, and this game can be enjoyed by serious or casual gamers ages 8 & up.

This package includes the Pink Cadillac Expansion and Great Races Score Pad.
