That's really cool but how in the hell do they remember what all the controls do?

Nick Scavo is one bad mutha...shut yo mouth!!!! Didn't he used to race a 67is GTO??? I remember aside from the impala, he was racing a different boat of a car.

It's amazing what an impact that car had, and how many people remember it. I know it was on my desktop for along time.

Kinda like the story in one of my old mag's about the guy with a black first year Monte Carlo. It was a simple, plain BB car that he had with minimal safety equipment on it that he took to a track, he put something like 9.40, (or maybe even 8.90???), on the windshield and everybody just laughed!!

He took off and ran like a 9.22 or something like that AND promptly got thrown off the track!!

Seems he had a full house 555 or some such large to huge motor under the hood that had "bou-cou"(Sp?) hp!!!

Quite a sleeper imho...
