ABSTRACT:
A toy racing game includes at least one vehicle powered by a windup spring motor and a track on which the vehicle runs. The vehicle includes an exposed winding member which when rotated winds up the spring motor. An energizing station is located in association with the track and this station is capable of interacting with the vehicle winding member to wind the spring motor. The energizing station includes an engagement mechanism which moves out from the station and contacts the vehicle to retain the vehicle in association with the station. The engagement mechanism includes a retaining member which so retains the vehicle and a motion transfer member which engages with the winding member on the vehicle. Rotation of the motion transfer member is transferred to the winding member to energize the vehicle's spring motor. The vehicle is allowed to propel itself on the track when the engagement mechanism moves away from the vehicle back towards the station.
