How do you store/display your Cars cars? Since they're too big to fit into the Jammers cases, I've still got all of mine in their blisterprisons...I mean blisterpacks. I can't wait until the day I can liberate them! I don't have any display cases, so I'm hoping for some tips here so I can finally liberate them all.

I saw a storage unit for the Cars cars at a K-Mart not too long ago, but it only stores about 16 cars and costs $20! That's insane!

Bass Pro shops has a bazillion different clear plastic storage containers for fishing gear. I found some that hold the CARS quite nicely. I'm sure Cabellas (or any store with a lot of sporting goods) will have similar items too.

Great tip!

That said, have you tried gravity racing one of them yet? If so, how did it do?

Only a few of them fit on the track. Most hang up on the starting gates. I tried Rusty and Dusty Rust-Eeze and they didn't do too well. Some of these may make good banger cars. :rolleyes:
