What's it like watching 1,200 toy cars zip around an inconceivably tangled kinetic sculpture, charging and whirring all at once? Like choreographed chaos!

Portland Or in rush hour?That was awesome! [thumbsup]
I wish my morning commute was that choreographed!
This is a good example of how well traffic would move if assholes couldn't constantly change lanes... [laugh]
Pretty cool. Some people just have way too much money to play with. I wonder what that cost to build. I'm sure its at least got 4 figures.
If the guy bought every car at .99 cents each it would be over $1000 alone!!!
looks like something out of one my childhood fantasies.....awesome

Well beyond four figures. That framing is pricey by itself, let alone the conveyors....
What a colossal waste of time and money.

The hotwheels track could bring the heat. I still flinch when I see orange plastic. :D
Oh yeah, as said above those aren't HotWheels cars.
Worse yet were the slightly more beefy, yellow Matchbox tracks.
Owee.

I used to get teary eyed when I got hot wheels playsets for xmas. They were NOT tears of joy, but of anticipated beatings. Merry xmas.
