Title: Toy vehicle game and drone vehicle

Abstract: A toy vehicle and toy vehicle game are disclosed in which a plurality of toy vehicles are provided that collect current from conductor strips in a slotless track and switch lanes when the current polarity is reversed. A toy drone car is used in the game which collects current from the strips associated with the other cars and it includes an electrical circuit which insures that current of only a predetermined desired polarity is supplied to the motor in the vehicle to propel the vehicle in a forward direction around the track. As a result the vehicle is driven about the track in a forward direction regardless of the polarity of current applied to the collector strips.
