I can well remember struggling with the pickup brushes and infernal track joins in an not always successful attempt to keep our Skalextric functional. We had lots of track and used to do hillclimbs up the stairs

Also much 'impact crash testing' competitions down the hallway at top speed and straight into the brick wall to see how high the Ford GT-40s would bounce, around 4ft from memory. Gee those LeMans type cars took some punishment, but not the F1 pair of Vanwall and sharknose Ferrari which couldn't hack the pace
