watch the start of the burn out about 1/2 way through, I think I saw a hand grab the top of the wheel. Someone is in that car. About 2:57 you have to have it full screen.

What would have been great, would be if he ran his *** over with it

the 2:57 point looks like some reflection in the mirror

Watch the second video. He is sitting in the drivers seat controlling it with his remote.. Not really sure what the practical point is, at least right now. Why spend the money on a full sized Corvette so you can stand in and open parking lot and drive it around in circles. Not like you can send it to get gas or pick up your laundry.

Some of you folks must not be techy. If you can afford a car like this, AND utilize your tech genius to make it drive itself, or at least be driven remotely...that's more than a double win, it's like the epitome of "bi-winning". Win here, win there, win win everywhere. Just the opinion of one IT geek...
