Abstract

A central barrier (7) is present between two adjacent lanes in at least the curved track sections. Toy racing cars (4) are driven along two or more lanes (1, 2) on a race track with straight and curved sections (3) via parallel contact rails (13-20), which supply electricity needed to drive and steer the cars. Barriers (5, 6) are present on either side of the track.
