How Do I Make Toy Cars Stick On An Incline On Cake?

I am making a cake with the concept of the following picture/link. How would I attach the toy cars on the incline for them to stay put? Actually the mom will be attaching them since I cannot make this party, so I need to give her instructions.

A little dab of piping gel under the tires should work, but a toothpick would be easier and quicker. She can just place a toothpick wherever she would like to place the car. Under the cars, there is always a little space that the toothpick will catch on to. She can just remove each pick after she takes the toys off to serve.
I did the same thing, except I attached toothpicks/skewers (depending on weight of vehicle) to the underside of the car/truck using melted chocolate. Once the chocolate had set, I inserted the picks into the cake. The advantage of this is that the picks come back out with the cars.

excellent point! I'd worry about the toothpicks becoming imbedded into the cake from some kid pushing on the car or something.
