The BK was important as it incorrectly came with BBQ sauce. Had it come with the requested mayo, reaction times would have improved by .8 of a second and shaved a whole second off 0-60 time.

KFC. It's more suited to low-carb diets such as Atkins, etc so you'll lose weight and get better times.


GTECH toy is a gimmick anyway.

it's accurate for each car on the same bit of road etc. you run the car standard then you mod it and run again. you get an average time etc
