Cool Stuuuupidly fast lil' cars

When we think our cars, of whatever scale are quick, check out this link !
These cars are stoooopid fast. I still WAY WAY prefer RC, but my Dad is long time ago ex British slot car champ, and he's got back into it recently. I also had a go a few times with cars almost as fast in a straight line, and they sure take some respect. Like I said, RC is all I need, but this vid sure is impressive. Enjoy.

There was a guy at my work who raced in manchester every thursday - but they were scalextric things - not these home made custom things. You don't steer tho, whats that all about!

I guess you don't have time to steer Jimmy ! They're too darn fast. Not my cup of tea, but they are still impressive. A couple of jumps would be interesting . Apparently, the track in the vid is the track for this year's worlds, so it's kinda like a worlds warm up.
