You could gas the old cars, and they would fishtail around the turns. If you did it right, you could crash into your opponent and knock them off the track!

With the rails installed and the banking, he can run full-bore. In fact, with two cars running, the inside lane goes flat out too. It's pretty funny on such a tiny track.

I remember from the Sears catalog (remember those) that had the big monster track with something like 100 feet of track.

Instead, I got a train.
