How to Make the Loop in Hot Wheels Track Pack

Hot Wheels toys by Mattel have been enjoyed by children since they were introduced in 1968. Tracks for Hot Wheels die-cast cars are sold in sets ranging from very simple to very complex, some with moving parts requiring batteries. The Hot Wheels Track Pack is one of the more basic starter track sets, containing several pieces of classic track and plastic connectors, as well as a clamp for attaching to furniture, curved track pieces, a car launcher, a car jump and hardware that enables you to make a loop for your cars to run through.
