Man On Couch Can Now Outrace a Man in Car

Now when your annoying roommate says he can drive a race car better than that guy on TV, you can prove he’s full of crap. A company called Real Time Race is making it possible in 2010 for people at home to race in real time with people in real cars on real tracks.

According to the company’s website, “There’s a range of ways to participate – Real Time Race operates with any Internet connected screen with a web browser. So if you’re an Xbox, Wii or Playstation fanatic you’re in business.” (Apparently they didn’t get the memo that the “Xbox” doesn’t have a web browser…)

We bet Dale Earnhardt, Jr. never thought he would be beat by a 40-year-old fat guy in his underwear who lives with his parents. Sign up for the demo at their site.
