Described is a track set with a tiltable surface for use with a toy vehicle. The track set includes a handle that allows a user to tilt the surface while resting the track set on a base and tilting the surface at a pivot point. Further, the surface includes a first side and a second side. The track set is formed to allow a user to switch the position of the pivot point and base and thereby selectively use either the first side or second side.

1. A track set with a tiltable surface for use with a toy vehicle, comprising: a base;a surface upon which a toy vehicle can traverse, the surface having a first side and a second side and being rotatably connected with the base, and wherein the surface includes pivot connectors formed on both the first and second sides for selective attachment and detachment with a pivot point; anda handle attached with the surface to allow a user to rotate the surface with respect to the base and thereby manipulate a toy vehicle traversing the surface; anda pivot point that is substantially planar and semi-circular, the pivot point structure being formed to allow for selective attachment and detachment with the pivot connectors on at least one of the first and second sides, such that rotating the surface using the handle causes the surface to tilt laterally about the pivot point structure. 2. The track set as set forth in claim 1, wherein the surface is a substantially planar surface, and wherein the pivot connectors are formed as holes in the surface of both the first and second sides. 3. The track set as set forth in claim 2, wherein the pivot point structure includes pegs that are formed to selectively attach and detach with the holes that are formed on the first and second sides of the surface, thereby allowing a user to selectively attach the pivot point structure with the first or second side. 4. The track set as set forth in claim 3, further comprising obstacles that are removably attachable with the surface, whereby a user can guide a toy vehicle into contact with the obstacles. 5. The track set as set forth in claim 4, wherein the surface includes side rails to maintain a toy vehicle thereon; and wherein the surface further comprises: a first surface part and a second surface part;a tongue and group assembly separating the first surface part from the second surface part, such that the first surface part is detachably attachable with the second surface part through the tongue and groove assembly;wherein the base and handle are fixedly attached with the first surface part and the pivot connectors are formed on the second surface part, whereby when a user decides to use the second side of the surface as opposed to the first side, the user can detach the pivot point from the second side, and reattach the pivot point on the first side using the pivot connectors, the user can also detach the first surface part from the second surface part and then turn over the second surface part and then reattach the second surface part to the first surface part. 6. The track set as set forth in claim 5, wherein the surface includes multiple exit points through which the toy vehicle can be guided off of the surface. 7. The track set as set forth in claim 6, further comprising includes an elevation adjuster attached with surface to elevate at least one end of the surface and alter an angle of the surface with respect to a ground plane. 8. The track set as set forth in claim 1, further comprising obstacles that are removably attachable with the surface, whereby a user can guide a toy vehicle into contact with the obstacles. 9. The track set as set forth in claim 1, wherein the surface further comprises: a first surface part and a second surface part;a tongue and group assembly separating the first surface part from the second surface part, such that the first surface part is detachably attachable with the second surface part through the tongue and groove assembly;wherein the base and handle are fixedly attached with the first surface part and the pivot connectors are formed on the second surface pan, whereby when a user decides to use the second side of the surface as opposed to the first side, the user can detach the pivot point from the second side, and reattach the pivot point on the first side using the pivot connectors the user can also detach the first surface part from the second surface part and then turn over the second surface part and then reattach the second surface pan to the first surface part. 10. The track set as set forth in claim 1, wherein the surface includes multiple exit points through which the toy vehicle can be guided off of the surface. 11. The track set as set forth in claim 1, further comprising an elevation adjuster attached with surface to elevate at least one end of the surface and alter an angle of the surface with respect to a ground plane. 12. A method for forming a track set with a tiltable surface for use with a toy vehicle, comprising acts of: forming a base;forming a surface upon which a toy vehicle can traverse, the surface having a first side and a second side, the surface also including pivot connectors formed on both the first and second sides for selective attachment and detachment with a pivot point structure;rotatably connecting the surface being with the base; andattaching a handle with the surface to allow a user to rotate the surface with respect to the base and thereby manipulate a toy vehicle traversing the surface; andfurther comprising an act of forming a pivot point structure that is substantially planar and semi-circular, the pivot point structure being formed to allow for selective attachment and detachment with the pivot connectors on at least one of the first and second sides, such that rotating the surface using the handle causes the surface to tilt laterally about the pivot point structure. 13. The method as set forth in claim 12, wherein in forming the surface, the surface is formed to be a substantially planar surface, and wherein the pivot connectors are formed as holes in the surface of both the first and second sides. 14. The method as set forth in claim 13, wherein the pivot point structure includes pegs that are formed to selectively attach and detach with the holes that are formed on the first and second sides of the surface. 15. The method as set forth in claim 12, further comprising an act of forming obstacles that are removably attachable with the surface, whereby a user can guide a toy vehicle into contact with the obstacles. 16. The method as set forth in claim 12, wherein the surface is formed to include side rails to maintain a toy vehicle thereon. 17. The method as set forth in claim 12, wherein the surface is formed to include multiple exit points through which the toy vehicle can be guided off of the surface. 18. The method as set forth in claim 12, further comprising an act of forming an elevation adjuster for attaching with surface to elevate at least one end of the surface and alter an angle of the surface with respect to a ground plane.
