That is exactly what they are for. There is an age range of *children* who
are too old for DUPLO, but too young for System.

The age range on these sets is 4-9. That's hardly too young for System. Even
now, many *Technic* sets ag range start below 9.

Well, remember that "age range" is kind of misleading.  Rather than
chronological age, the important one is level of development - physical,
mental,
and even emotional.  So there may be a market for kids who are "too old" for
Duplo, but who lack the physical & mental development necessary to enjoy
System or even Technic.

I'm not sure how (or if) the Racers will draw this market back into the System/

Technic line, but I think that the market is there.
