One of the best parts about playing with toy cars as a kid was setting up your own high-speed car chase.  Okay, who are we kidding?  One of the best parts about playing with toy cars period is setting up your own high-speed car chase!  That’s why this YouTube video is such a fan favorite.  It showed up on my personal Facebook page, but I found the original here on My Life at Speed from Freddie Wong’s RocketJump YouTube channel, hat tip to GT and CNaz.

Oh, and don’t forget to check out the behind-the-scenes video too!  A lot of work from the folks at Pacific Coast Hobbies and Action Factory went into making this little gem.  They also got a hand from the folks behind the Need for Speed: Most Wanted video game.  From the excellent soundtrack, to the intensity of the “drivers” and of course, the stunts, The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever is fun to watch – repeatedly.  Enjoy!
