This is just .....

Seriously watch the whole thing lol.

This, friends, is some fun: a 2,000-foot-long Hot Wheels track that goes up and down multiple stories, through 14 rooms of a house, outdoors and back in again, and even over a hot tub. You know, just like NASCAR used to do it. (For perspective's sake, if we use the typical 1/64 ratio of Hot Wheels cars, this is the equivalent of a 24-mile-long race track.)

When it got to the helix-shaped loops, my jaw dropped. Oh, and the hot tub part was insane...

vroom vroom nostalgia

**Bluearrowll** · 10-20-2011, 10:31 PM

That was amazing - I laughed when it went outside. XD

**XXXsmittyXXX** · 10-20-2011, 10:48 PM

The cost of all those accelerators is probably a bit much. Good thing it made a cool vid

Crashfan3 · 10-20-2011, 11:10 PM

Man, what would we do without bored rednecks?

**UserNameGoesHere** · 10-20-2011, 11:22 PM

That is an awesome dad! Also it looks like a large home and all those parts must have been expensive. Certain things would have to be calculated (or at least constantly adjusted until "just right") such as the jump. I'm thinking the guy is probably a high-paid engineer of some sort.

**DarknessXoXLight** · 10-20-2011, 11:28 PM

That was beautiful. :')

who_cares973 · 10-20-2011, 11:35 PM

Yea, I realized this pretty quickly after questioning how they filmed this. Either they had 200 video cameras or they reset it each time. It's even more depressing that they most likely only had a small amount of track and kept moving it through their house.

Here's some cool youtube stuff

I am pretty sure that happened in either the neighborhood i'm currently staying at right now, or one right next to it.

**Teddy_scfa** · 10-21-2011, 12:36 AM

I lol'd as soon as it went outside too

**psychoangel691** · 10-21-2011, 12:36 AM

Two wheelie at 1:33. Nice recovery before the next accelerator.

You know that dad built the whole thing while the kids were watching cartoons. Some of the lines cut out of the video include:
"@#$%!", "don't touch that!", "Daddy's almost done", "just sit there, quietly", "Come on, I just connected that piece!", "Daddy is going to launch the first car to test it out", "please kids, this is serious."

Props to dad's free time though. My free time is limited to this post and a trip to the restroom.

Best comment.
