It can be attacked by opposing faction if pvped or in bgs.
Cannot pick up Zerking buff to make it grow.
It is possible to Feign death and quickly summon this so it appears you are dead while controlling this so you can bait others for pvp flag.

Seems to have around 2000 - 2250 life

How many charges does it have?

Commentaire de Znuff

So can you only get this on 25th December?

Commentaire de 131780

I talked to a GM, and the achievement backs it up
this is only available this year, 2008
it's the special gift for this year
clockwork robot was last year

Commentaire de 156521

I don't know if I'll have internet access Christmas Eve or Christmas. Anyone know if we'll be able to get gifts after those days? Do they stay up until the end of Winter Veil?

Commentaire de Amrassirfalas

I believe that it has a 100% drop chance in one of the presents. Everyone got a clockwork robot last year and it's just the same this year. Just with the racer instead.

Commentaire de 142762

Since there are 8 different presents, and 8 days to collect them in (or 9 if you still can throughout 2. January) does that mean you can only collect 1 each day, and have to do it this way if you want all the presents? Or is it possible to open them all in one day?

Commentaire de Badboiz

does anyone know if u have to be 80 to get this present? or is it the same as last year and every character can get it ?

Commentaire de Darthdavo

This is very much like the Tonk controller, except no fighting skills, just a little racing toy to annoy horde with

Commentaire de 231463

lolz finally got it and loving it :) ^^ cheers to seeing wowhead ingame finally

Commentaire de 64664

It also counts in the upper screen how many kills you did in one round. Is there also an extra achievement for killing x rockets in one round?
With 'extra' I mean not the obviously Winterveil achievement as shown in the logs.

Commentaire de Aisenfaire

In Ironforge and Orgrimmar, there will be a big Christmas tree with a pile of presents underneath (during Winter Veil, of course). In IF, it's right outside the bank. In Org, it will be somewhat between the AH and the bank.

From December 25 to January 1, there will be 6 presents under the tree that will have a big yellow "!" over each. You can click on each to accept them like quests, but in lieu of actual quests you get gifts/ presents. (As they behave like quests, it's okay if other people are also clicking on them to accept them. You can still get yours.)

Links to all the possible gifts and presents you can get:

1. Carefully Wrapped Present : gives food

Winter Veil Cookie

2. Gaily Wrapped Present : gives pets! (yay)

3. Ticking Present : mainly gives a 3-time-use combat pet or a buff item

You have like a tiny chance to get patterns, etc., but the patterns are just normal non-event patterns. You can view the documented list here.

4. Gently Shaken Gift : gives a drink

Winter Veil Eggnog

5. Festive Gift : gives a 10-day item that makes people laugh (has a 2 minute cooldown)

Wand of Holiday Cheer

6. Crashin' Thrashin' Racer Controller : basically a toy that you can control to fight other toys. No duration or limited use on this one.

Commentaire de 288567

You have to be level 10 at least to get this present (as well as all 5 presents).
It looks much like the Wowhead rocket icon, but with wheels and a green flag on the back.

The item is a unlimited use item that stays in your inventory, has a 15 second cooldown, and looks like one of the engineering widget icons.

On use, you control the 'pet' rocket car (much like eyes of the beast) for 5 minutes and you're supposed to try to ram into other rocket cars. The attack propels you forward with a flame behind your car. It seems to auto-lock on to cars to a certain extent, but it can be avoided if they go sideways. The attack has a 6 second cooldown.

You can jump while controlling it. And it does seem to pick up aura effects.

If you car blows up by being attacked, you'll have to wait for the 15 second cooldown to re-summon.
On hunters (and I assume warlocks), using this despawns your currently active pet and the pet does not come back until you resummon it.
Hope this helps.

Commentaire de 273945

The racer can be used in water as well as land.

Commentaire de Aircraft

This is has earned a permanent spot in my bags as an instant and infinite range dismiss pet.

Make this a macro:

#showtooltip Feign Death
/use Crashin' Thrashin' Racer Controller
/use Feign Death

Commentaire de 136371

Just got mine. It has one primary attack. It dashes forward and if it hits another racer the other 1 blows up. It can hop too.

Commentaire de flopfaint

Counts as a pet, and useable in combat, can be used for an instant pet dismiss without happiness loss.

Commentaire de 107987

I seem to be have a problem with this, every time I summon my racer it despawns my demon and doesnt bring him back when the car is over, perhaps a bug?

Commentaire de 156600

Perfect for explaining boss fights.

Commentaire de Brmonkey

Does not break stealth upon use. So to other players it will just appear out of nowhere. Lot's of fun running around lowbie zones!

Also, this pet is attackable and will aggro mobs, but when it is killed, the mob will not automatically aggro you!

Commentaire de Chucknorris

I was fooling around with this item in RFC, while waiting for my ghetto hearth and noticed a few intresting "features".

- The pet can agro mobs, and will not put the player into combat when it despawns.
- Using this item while in stealth does not unstealth you.
- The pet which is Summoned is lvl 60 and has 2442 hp.
- Lasts 5 min or until it has run out of range or hp.

This could be an interesting way to sneak through instances and farm bosses. It worked in RFC I'm assuming the same would apply to higher lvl instances.

oh and a weird thing I also noticed. I tried to turn off its name tag and the car is apparently counted as an enemy pet. No idea what this can be used for but just thought it was worth noting.

merry christmas and happy holidays

Edit: Thank you Oberscht, I have an entirely custom interface on my main. Didn't know I was missing anything until I logged on an alt and tried it, but then I was just too lazy to come back and edit this.

Commentaire de Thunderstruck05

I have only managed to obtain 10 kills before ultimately blowing up in a cloud of smoke. :( It's a rather challenging game with 4 or more people playing in one area.

Commentaire de Denerce

Not sure if this has been posted, but it seems you can aggro mobs using these Racers. Tonight during Naxx we sent a line to Noth and he glitched and wiped the raid, we had a great time doing it though.

Commentaire de Humbug

This is great for pulling mobs and doing recon... you can deploy it without breaking stealth also! If somebody is really being annoying you can pull a bunch of mobs and die next to the target player and they will get swarmed! =D

Commentaire de Nixxen

As I haven't seen it mentioned yet:

This item for 2008 winter veil(and the Clockwork Rocket Bot for 2007 - now unattainable) is looted from the Winter Veil Gift.
This gift becomes available on December 25th and can be looted from under the Christmas tree in IF or ORG.
You do NOT get any xp for opening the presents, so if you're twinking you can safely open them without the fear of dinging.

As for the Crashin' & Thrashin' achievement - If you "die" during the run, the "kill counter" does not reset. So if you're in a racer crowded place, I.E. IF bank area, and you only get one "kill" for every time you "die" yourself - Don't worry. It all adds up.
Just keep at it and eventually you'll get it complete.

Commentaire de Psyblade1st

It gains auras, also.

I begun messing around at Gnomeregan when I was bored, and let the racer race through gnomes, who attacked it.

Soon after, died from Ret aura. It was funny...running from a tiny car.

Commentaire de Lucid

It's been noted already that the racer will aggro bosses and the like. However, be sure to also consider it will start 'trigger initiated scripted sequences', such as boss encounters that start by simply walking into the room, or bosses that have some sort of 'startup' script or speech before actually engaging. It's aggro radius appears very small, often requiring you to be inside the targeting circle, despite being level 60, even on naxx bosses. People will often aggro with the racer thinking "well if it did aggro it would have by now right?".

We managed to beat the 4 horseman in Naxx25 simply by starting a pull unexpectedly and unprepared with a racer, since the horsemen are scripted to come running to the corners. This is our guilds e-patented strategy, don't tell the internets please.

Commentaire de 294625

if you are low level and can't really pull yourself, in a dungeon use it and you can pull monsters and idiotic players.

also in battlegrounds a good idea is to Stealth,Shadowmeld,or more then use it to scope put the flag.

(in SFK it can be used to pull the undead without being stunned)
(in RFC if you are running somone you can pull w/o dangering the lower level you are running)

it can also swim!

(there are also many more things to do with it)

Commentaire de Zurr

~100 yard range before it despawns.

Commentaire de 309972

Just a note, these can be useful to skip bosses in instances by making it reset.

I used it on Hadronox's mobs to reset the encounter. Our group was then able to run down to where he starts and burn him before any adds show up. The first pull still has to be killed afterwards though.

Commentaire de 326247

Woot! Thanks for the racer WOWHEAD.COM! Still have it on all my toons. Carefull use n in instances though, you can pull aggro with it (XD) Have seen people wipe groups with it.

Commentaire de Frox

Unfortunately, Molten Armor + Molten Shields will cause your Armor to damage mobs whom attack your Crashin' Thrashin' Racer, giving you unfortunate agro! Make sure to use Molten Armor with caution when messing around and agroing random things with your Racer!

Can be used to explode the slimes during frogger and kill raid members. Yes, oh yes...

Commentaire de 135578

Does not go into engineer bags as of 3.1 sadly :(

Commentaire de 29534

For a bit of extra fun, you can play with these in Naxx near the slimes or outside Mimiron's room near the bombs. You have to watch out for other racers AND the road hazards (slimes and bombs.) :)

Commentaire de BHLimbslicer

Having "accidently" deleted it, is there any way to get it back as of now?

Commentaire de Leviatharan

Horde characters can use this to sneak around the Silver Enclave in Dalaran. All you need is a flying mount (doesn't need to be 280%) and Cold Weather training. And, obviously, the ability to ride it.

Step 1: Use a flying mount to get to the ledge in the Silver Enclave. Coordinates: approximately 39,60.

Step 2: Use the racer controller and aim for the doorway down the stairs towards the Southeast. Coords: about 41,64 for the door.

Step 3: Use the Racer Rocket Slam ability. This may take a few tries, but if your racer is thrown out just turn off the buff and summon a new one. The trick is to try and crash into the right of the archway, just inside the door.

If you manage to get in the archway then you're home free! You can run all around the Hero's Welcome tavern and the cellar below. You can't go outside though on your racer, and you can't walk in on your character. Unless you're a mage.
Or Alliance.

Commentaire de Ghoulcraft

just to add my 2 cents here... I'm pretty sure that the racer will be available this year due to the achievement that requires you to defeat another players racer... Or else why would thy have that achievement for last year ?

lol it is good for explaining boss fights i knew the fight with my lock back in BC and was demonstrating what to do as the raid leader was explaining it
and everyone kinda got nervous when i was withen 15 feet of prince in kara lol!

does anyone know what this years pet will be?

Commentaire de Laurens

Can we get this one this year? D:
Was stupid enough to play Death Knight last year and missed out on the Controller on my warlock ;<

Commentaire de Derren

please santa, bring this toy back this year!

Commentaire de StevieWonder

Heh heh, got this in the christmas event 2008. People who were not there to collect one in 2008. Will be disapointed because it's not coming back for 2009. 3 days till christmas 2009 :D

Commentaire de Xdoom

I would like to comment that if you don't have rogue to see those traps that trigger Deathbound Ward in Icecrown Citadel, and no warlock to use the Eye of Kilrogg, you can use Crashin' Thrashin' Racer Controller. I used it and i was able to trigger the traps far in advance.

Hellscream US

Commentaire de Nasha

This works perfectly for "resetting" Hadronox in Azjol-Nerub if you have no rogue in the group to vanish. Just send the car right in, mobs will reset, and the group can run down to meet the boss below without any ads. Easy way to get Hadronox Denied.

Unfortunately, this cannot be used to spy on the opposing faction's areas in Dalaran. You get ported out as if your character ran in.

Commentaire de 201990

In patch 3.3.3 there will be a blue version of this! It will be able to battle current ones as well!

Commentaire de coolfreezer

Since 3.3.3 this item can be sold to a vendor for 10g instead of 50s as stated in the tooltip here on Wowhead

Now obtainable via the Stolen Present from this years Feast of Winter Veil

also all you need to do is tag the greench and wait and you'll get credit, even if the cross faction group is killing it.

Commentaire de 352813

Can be obtained during Winter Veil 2012, as a gift from the Greench daily quest.

Commentaire de Killerstorm

My Favorite Toy from back then. Now, use the pet lil XT while you use this toy. The pet will attack it and say:

I guess it doesn't bend that way....
I think i broke it.....

Just like the boss :D. Love it.

Commentaire de Eleila

As of 2023, it's been years that the BLUE stolen present (only attainable by lvl 60+ characters), reward of the daily quest You're a Mean One... La méchanceté vous habite... (Alliance) and La méchanceté vous habite... (Horde) available during all Winter Veil (and not only during the opening of presents) is the only way to obtain this toy.
Note that it existed as an object before toys existed. If you had it at that time, search your bags and banks on any character (as toys are account bound) to turn it into a toy.
If you have lost it or deleted it by mistake... you unfortunately have to do the quest again. Or prove me wrong because it's my case and I've been gathering as much info as I could to write this little guide which I hope will help others! :)
