How to place/wire the terminal tracks on a Tomy 4 lane?

I'm building a 4 lane oval using Tomy track. How do I place or wire the terminal tracks so that one of them does not have to be on the inside of the oval? Stock Tomy track & power & controllers that use the stock plugs.

Hi
i guess you will not have choice on putting one terminal track Inside you oval, if you are using tomy power track, all you have to do, make all the wire longer and pass them underneath of your layout, and you can reverse the plug so all the cars goes all the same direction, with dual power track you will have separate power on each lane

I would cut the connector loose from the terminal track, and move it to where you want it, then re-wire to the terminal track under the table.

I saw a Tomy power supply on eBay that had reverse polarity, so you could build a 4 lane track.

For my track, I used a normal terminal track on the outside 2 lanes, & soldered wires to the track for the inside 2 lanes.
