Speaking of toys...STP's

Anyone remember these? Hope I got the name right. They had the 3 ft zip strip, 4 wheels, with the weighted center wheel. They had drag cars, but the coolest were the demo-derby cars with the hood,trunk, and doors that would pop-off when they crashed! Anyone else having a flashback right now?!

What were these?

 

[The 500 Foundation]

it was a 72 Charger that came with little tools so you could pull the wheels, fenders motor and such apart and put back together
car is about 12 inches long or so

Old thread resurection.....

That Pit-Change Charger was one of my favorite toys. Came with a floor jack and engine hoist. It had a wrinkled fender and a straight one, and you could change the tires among other things. Even had a working battery powered buffer.
I distinctly remember the tuff wheel. That's proabably why I like them so much now.

Anyone remember the old Jonny Lightning tracks? The one we had was about maybe a 4 foot oval and you launched the car with a lever that you had to jerk to the right. It would send the car around the track once and stop it in the catch to be launched again. They must have been made well because I remember that thing got abused big time.

Yep and they had to be made good! How about "Duffys Dare-devil"? Up the ramp and thru the round cardboard flames.. Cant remember the car model.
