    Holy shit, this thing is awesome. If this was around 19 years ago, my grandma would have bought me and my cousin each one, and chaos would have ensued.

    Does no one remember "The Highwayman" from the 80's where they had almost this exact same thing. It stared Jacko Jackson, the "OI!" guy.

    I'd like to see that helicopter land on the truck. Maybe they should build in some landing gear magnets to help it align.

    Wilson, money allows you to buy toys, regardless of whether or not you have children, just like Jesus Diaz swims in his giant skyscraper-sized LEGO bin.

    Didn't James Bond, Q, Noika, and BMW already do this? Would this infringe on their patent?

    Mark, just admit it.


    You're bitter because you weren't spawned from the seed of Richard Petty and just want to be a NASCAR racer. After all, why not rig this so that you could drive a virtual race car on a video game console but the action would play out at an actual-factual racetrack with actual-factual cars?


    Oh wait - if something went wrong, it would probably lead to actual-factual deaths and actual-factual lawsuits.


    But, it would be actual-factual fun until then...


    So, yes, we need to be able to control real race cars with video games.

    I fucking love RC cars. That takes me back, I got to the point with one of mine, that I was jumping it over my parent's house. At about that point I moved on to RC planes, but they didn't turn out to be as fun (at least not on the budget I had at the time...).
