Participants race around a 45-foot long, colorful professional slot car racetrack.
Racers control the speed of the car by pressing a trigger on a plastic hand-held controller.
Each driver is allowed to choose a particular color of car, which also corresponds to the color of the controller and lane that the car will follow. The cars are fast and there is one turn on the track that drivers have to slow down for to keep the car from crashing. A variable output DC power supply controls the power and can be adjusted to enable the very little tykes to make laps without crashing if needed. Although we don t allow racers or spectators to put their hands on the track surface, they would not get shocked by any electrical if they did. We have had wandering hands struck by speeding cars and no person has ever suffered any injury.
