An nameless reader writes "If you've owned any of Sony's nintendo [tm] consoles then there's a good chance you've also played one of the Wipeout games. It's a high-speed racing game that helped make the PSOne popular, and it's now been recreated using a remote control car. The project is the idea of Malte Jehmlich.

He then hooked up a cellular phone camera to a remote control car, and modified the controller to be an arcade cabinet with a wheel and forward/reverse selector."
