Kinda hard to accomplish when my car starts in the backyard, up in a tree.

I just drove down some closed roads, and 160kph over speed bumps!

Would be more fun with some terrain modelling and collision detection.

That is pretty cool! I just drove a Semi through my neighborhood to make sure the car hauler coming in the morning would fit. It can! Fortunately I won't really be driving the hauler or I would have a few legal problems with my neighbors after smashing quite a few houses.

You won't believe how many of the neighbors have ruts in their yards.

Can't get the car to move. What am I doing wrong?

I did try and start at the Nurburgring, though.

That's pretty cool! I'll play when I have more time. Has anyone tried the flight simulator? I got to the point where I would take off at an airport, and land at another one. I'd put pushpins along my round (at the correct altitude so I'd see them).

I couldn't either. It might have something to do with the fact that mine started in the tree in my back yard though.

Does it always start you in a tree?

Starts me in the living room of my house. Ignoring that, I leave the yard, turn painfully wide across the neighbors yards and down the street. I hit the brakes, and a few minutes later I stop across the intersection and in someone's house. Moving on from this carnage, I head up the street at 160Kph until I get the railroad tracks, which prompts another long as heck stop. Giving up with trying to stay on roads, I then amused myself driving through neighborhoods until I ran out of map.

Started in Victoria, and made it home in about 10 minutes.

It's official, the highways on Vancouver Island NEED to be derestricted!

I drove a semi down Lombard Street in San Francisco.

Poorly.

Maybe because it was stuck on the roof over my living room.

Mine wouldn't go over 100kph, and it had a turning radius measurement of Delaware.

Am I the only one that found a racetrack and raced around it? Ok, very poorly, it took me like 5 minutes to get around Watkins Glen.

Apparently the latest overhead view of my house was taken this past summer when the front flowerbed had been entirely let go- looks like we got about halfway through cleaning it out then quit. You can also see my burn pile from space. Impressive!

I had the semi truck up past 190. Took a bit of time to get there though. Took even more to slow it down.

Doesn't work on my iPhone due to Shantanu Narayen's fight to the death with Steve Jobs. Guess we've got to wait for a winner before Flash gets eliminated from the planet.

Oh, wait...

off topic but, isnt there a apple-able browser that uses remote servers to decode the java and stream the content nearly lag free to your device? I thought there was an aftermarket browser that did that...at least I seem to remember there was one available for my iPad in the app store
