- thafooz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+20@mmilian
Smokers will still be able to play with the car, they'll just be limited to turning left.... they could still have NASCAR races ;) - OrangeTide, on 10/12/2007, -0/+20Is it safe for me to assume you didn't RTFA ?
- HeaDiggrNCharge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+19So what happens if my BAC is too high? Will it swerve?
- unknamed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11Did you read the article? Basically it's a musical training tool..... a visual representation of your breathing that helps you train yourself to control your breath. Very important when playing those types of musical instruments that require air from your lungs.
At least that's what I gathered from the article. - AKBryant54, on 10/12/2007, -4/+13A. its an R/C car
B. im fine with a steering wheel. alternate control forms can only lead to the "IT" off southpark, and no one wants that. - venir, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Just wait for them to get sued by the American Lung Association saying it's hazerdous for asthmatic children.
- radicaldementia, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8this is a great way for kids to spread germs.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4It's a training device for musicians to learn to control your breath and use circular breathing... it was all right there in the article, by the time you got to the course comparisons with a page of music, it should have been obvious...
- Tochi, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Wow so many people who didn't read the article. It's for musicians who want to learn to control their breathing better. Would've helped tons of people at my high school figure out that not all notes should be as loud as you can possibly make them. Trust me, if you don't sing or play a wind instrument then you're gonna miss the point of this completely.
- dharm, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5anyone remember Mr. Garrisons new transportation device from 'South Park'.
you sucked and blew on a shaft to control steering... - gotamd, on 10/12/2007, -4/+7Why, oh why would anyone ever want to use this? WHY!?!?
- zkirill, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Blowing into a freaking car would help people with their musical abilities? Could anyone think of a worse method?
- timbudtwo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Good thing people have an infinite ammount of breath to keep the car going straight. Last time I checked, kids arent too good at circular breathing.
- gotamd, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3You can't use an actual instrument for that? I did read the article, but I think it's a relatively dumb idea. If you want to learn how to play the flute (or other wind instrument) you should practice playing the flute, not blowing into some tube to steer a toy car. I don't think that you can really translate directly between an instrument and this toy. I'm sure it can help someone control his or her breathing better, but so can a lot of other things which don't require this completely unnecessary gadget.
- hrdcregmer808, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Wow this is cool..... It will make kids want to play the pass out game even more.... "ok billy just play with this and we'll do the rest" *Punches Billy Hard In the chest and runs* Parents come back home screaming.... Awesome...
- severtskigcc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Agreed. I wouldn't be able to drive a few months out of the year... stupid flowers, trees, grass, pollen, etc .
- MadEnvoy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I'd pass out after turning right 2 times.
- koguma, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2This is actually, the coolest thing I've seen in a while. If you RTFA, you'll see how the notes are translated to tracks. Now I don't play any instrument, but that fact that you can transcrbe a piece of music into a car track... that's just wacky.
- CausticNoise, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Every time you take a breath, the car veers left. You navigate an obstacle course and end up passing out from hyperventilation. Soon, road vehicles will be sold without steering wheels.
- stenk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1LOL :) Hawkins should make use of this! Lets hope he doesn't drive while he has a bad cough!
- DROWE859, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Thats what those sharp turns are for. They are places to take a breath.
- oneone11, on 10/30/2008, -0/+1RC Cars are always cool

thanks - spindrift, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I was actually going to joke about him instead, but I did some anti-flamebait research and realized he has (minimal) use of his hand. So a joystick would be more appropriate.
- spindrift, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Too bad Christopher Reeve wasn't around to see this. Someday he could have driven again!
- ThirdPrize, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1... it because they can. Right?
- linkinpark342, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hey this sounds like a good after-school project.....
- InContrast, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I, for one, think it's an awesome idea. I mean, if you've ever been around the 5-9 year old group, having them breathing into a car all day isn't such a bad thing. They'll be tired as hell by the end.
- zkirill, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2This is useless. Inventions are needed to solve problems. See a need, fill a need. This just created another problem, figuring out who the hell would actually want to use this???
- OrangeTide, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1I had some seats made copied from the episode for my motorcycle! I'd post pictures but they would be considered obscene.
- supermanred, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1This toy blows.
- OrangeTide, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Great. Herpes (orofacial) for everyone. Let's hope you got your Hepatitis A vaccination.
- kunsthaus, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1It seems that somebody has recently discovered the Interaction Design course at RCA and keeps on linking stuff.
- ephemerae, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2worst idea ever.
- leobaby, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2this sucks...
no wait, it blows... - brattray, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2Who the hell dugg this??
- Mr.Germain, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2worst idea i have ever heard.
- JK1150, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Useless
- Kalibr, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Thats a retarded Idea.... the only use I can think for it is to put a breathalizer in it and give it to a drunk for a Sobriety test.
- truNWA, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2Until you have to breath and coreen to the left.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1I wonder what happens when you cough ...
- steve693, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1Do quadriplegics really need to drive?
- VirgoanVenom, on 10/12/2007, -6/+2I don't know about you, but when I get my piece blown, I don't know how well I would be able to control a remote control car, or even care for that matter.
- Albaster, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1Yeah, right... Got a couple friends with asthma issues that will reaaaaaaaally appreciate it...
- tehgooch, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1One time at band camp...
