About Me:
I'm still a tax dodging student bum, having already gained a HND in computing at Wolverhampton University. Now I'm doing a degree in Computer Science with Games Development. So maybe, just maybe, I'll be designing cool-ass games in a few years!
If I'm not at uni working then I'll either be at home playing computer games, working on uni stuff or going to Ju-Jitsu (I currently hold an orange belt in that)....Oh and drinking my alcohols of the month

Gamer Creates Real-Life WipeOut Video Game With R/C Car

Simmy

6:43 PM on 08.06.2010

Note: I realise this is my first dtoid blog in nearly 18 months. While this might seem like I haven't been a part of the great Destructoid community, believe me I've been here checking the site many times daily. I guess I've been keeping a low profile.

Anyway, whilst browsing my car news website of choice, Jalopnik, I came across this article. Here, a guy has created a Wipeout style track and races an R/C car around it. The best part is that there's a camera attached to the car and the cat is controlled via a steering wheel located in an arcade unit - how awesome!

It might look that great right now, but it shows proof of concept and I'd be interested in seeing what he does in the future with this

Since I can't get the embed video thing working I'll post a link to the page where I found said article
