You might consider adding a relay. Take a look at the drawing chaamy posted here: [Issues with modifying Lightning McQueen Toy Car (bigger version)](https://www.gbgconnect.com/t/issues-with-modifying-lightning-mcqueen-toy-car-bigger-version/151)  
The correct drawing is at the bottom.  
If you find the mechanical switch is not sensitive enough, you can use a proximity switch instead. For that, you would also have to add the relay as well.
