ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A toy vehicle game includes an endless track defining at least two parallel vehicle lanes having vertical side walls in which two or more toy vehicles are adapted to be operated. Each toy vehicle includes a reversible rotary drive motor and a transmission operatively engaged between the motor and one of two drive wheels for rotating one or the other of the drive wheels in the forward direction in response to the direction of rotation of the drive motor, thereby biasing the toy vehicle against one or the other of the side walls to guide the toy vehicle along its path of travel in one or the other of the two vehicle lanes. The track includes substantially flush electrical contact strips which supply power to the drive motors through current collectors mounted thereon. A control system permits the operators to separately and independently control current to the contact strips and also to selectively reverse the polarity of the current so that the operators can vary the speed of their associated toy vehicles and cause the toy vehicles to move from one lane to the other. When the polarity of the current to one of the toy vehicles is reversed, a boost in available average electrical power is made available to that toy vehicle for a first limited duration maximum period. After using the boosted average power the selected toy vehicle must return to its original lane to be operated there at a normal power level for a minimum of a second limited fixed duration period before power boost is again available. A balancing control equalizes the maximum per- formance of the two toy vehicles.
