The Vinyl Arcade

This is bananas

Remote control cars with audio pick-ups attached to their chassis RACE through a course constructed from a mass of disused vinyl records.

lol...... I thought the usage of vinyl records as the surface would somehow yield some indication that the "audio pickups" were able to even remotely close to read the records slightly almost.... but it seems like it would not sound much different if the car was driving on concrete. Still cool though

so rad. was waiting a spinout to reveal Mystery to Me or an Asia album.

Finally, the Barry Manilow live records clogging up the thrift stores have a purpose.

Finally, not nearly enough rat shit Barbara Streisand records clogging up thrift stores have found one of few decent uses.

should have had the car driving slower. not that it would have made much difference, i suppose...

again I really don't think this would have sounded much difference if it were driving on nearly any other solid earth born surface at all.

the record track is cool visually I was just expecting it to sound more neato somehow

yeah when it flips over at the end the wheels spinning in the air makes the same noise that its doing the whole time
