  • Patent number: 5152528
    Abstract: An amusement device is provided which permits the racing of cars. A housing is provided with a sloped ramp. The ramp has an upper portion and a lower portion. A starting gate is provided proximal to the upper portion. A handle is provided which will raise the gate when desired. Several disks are mounted on a shaft which is mounted inside the housing and underneath the ramp approximately intermediate the upper portion and the lower portion. There are a number of permanent magnets mounted on the disks, one less magnet mounted equidistantly on the disk than the number of total disks. The shaft is mounted on the inside of the housing on one side and passes through the housing on the other side. The shaft side which passes through the housing is connected to a knob. By turning the knob, the shaft will rotate. When the knob is turned, the shaft rotates, thus causing the rotation of the disks. There are a number of lanes corresponding to the number of cars. The number of disks are equal to the number of lanes.
