Just a single space vehicle is to possess one opening. So for instance, assuming that you have an eight path track, you can have up to eight vehicles circling the track.

Each space is associated with a power source, for example, an electric power pack or batteries which keeps up with that the power supply stays stable all through the entire time the opening vehicles are on the track. To keep the opening vehicles from leaping out of the space, a portion of the opening vehicles underside have some kind of magnets which keep these electric model vehicles in steady contact with metal strips even at high velocities. Some model vehicle edges are even polarized to accomplish similar impact as the underside magnets. The speed of the vehicles are constrained by the pressing of the trigger way on a single handed grip joystick set in the hand of the individual who is controlling the space vehicle. Pressing the trigger speeds up the opening vehicle and delivering the trigger dials the electric model vehicle back or stops it totally.
