contents This short note answers a question raised by Nathanson \cite{Nath25} about "races" between iterated sumsets. We prove that for any integer $n$, there are finite sets of integers $A$ and $B$ with same diameter such that the signs of the elements of the sequence $(|hA|-|hB|)_h$ changes at least $n$ times. Kravitz proved in \cite{Kravitz} a much better result. This brief and modest note may serve as a stepping stone towards his work.
