ABSTRACT:
In a preferred embodiment, there is provided a symbolic plurality of parallel racing lanes and racing horse-drawn sulkies, which sulkies have respective electric motor-driven wheels by drive shafts thereof having electrical commutators mounted operatively thereon furnishing commutator intermittent direct current to pivot swinging legs' electromagetic induction coils and responsive material on the legs responsive movably to induction in the coils when activated to thereby by intermittent activation cause the legs to swing to and fro as if running, respective sulkies being driven at chance intervals of time periods and at chance rates of speeds by a speed regulator mechanism which includes in series on a cyclically rotating disk a plurality of alternate electrical contact strips in electrical parallel for consecutive contact with all power leads to the motors of the sulkies but at different starting-points on the disk for different sulkies at any particular non-specific time of beginning the race of sulkies, and associated with each alternate electrical contact strip there being an electrical resistance in series different and diverse relative to resistances of others of the electrical-parallel alternate electrical contact strips, such that each sulky's speed is relative to both the length of the contact strip then in series intermittently, as well as the particular resistance associated with that particular contact strip, anchored to a track.
