Crash It Racers[1] is a subtheme of Racers in 2001.
Description[]
The sets did not feature real minifigures, but used Ramas (Part 30598) that were small customized figures that were shorter than 4 stacked Studs. Most sets of the theme included eight pieces since they were just different modifications of the same car. However one set was a track and included two cars.
Background[]
According to a United Kingdom 2001 catalog, the story is set in the year 2210 AD, taking place in the city of Knossox on planet Xalax. The racing-obsessed Ramas compete in the Racers tournaments held daily in the city's Big Dome arena.[2] Xalax serves as the fifth and final world of LEGO Racers 2.

Notes[]
- In most official media outside the online LEGO Shop, the Crash It Racers subtheme is simply marketed as Racers. It is unofficially called "Xalax" by many LEGO fans due to the name of its setting and the logo featured in LEGO Racers 2.
