Cool Want to "hot-up" those mommy-mobiles?

Funny youtube vid...sent to me by a SoCal friend; who says a friend of his went to order one of these gizmos but they were sold out and on back-order from the Cal. supplier LOL!

Apologies if this is a repost...

YouTube - Shonky and the SoundRacer V8

it'd be cool if they could emulate other engine configurations (like V12s, or flat-crank V8s)...

Clever it is! It's no wonder they have sold out everywhere. Apparently every stockist round Australia is out and they are looking for more distibutors. I reckon it would be a fun gift for the person you can't seem to buy anything for - bit kooky but very funny and at around $50 Aussie it's a cheap enough laugh .

The youtube vid sells it well too I think. Also the sales blurb says it will double as a connection for an mp3/ipod player which is a good bonus if your stereo doesn't have the right jack (no - I am not buying one!).

they have a V10 one that sounds pretty "lambo-esque"

oooh, will it work in my Prius?


.. . and if so, will it play sounds if the ice-pack building somewhere. ...maybe the sound of a car braking?

ROFL....certainly could do with it!

Not sure about the car braking sounds though...maybe there's a market for these guys there too (for Toyotas anyway )...
