My Wife and I were trying to figure out which song.......don't know.:confused:

Did you notice his little trick?? He put the car on backwards, and flippied it around......he loves doin' that! :cool:

Thanks guys!!

sounds like he's been watching The Rockford Files... :cool:

(i've been Googling and surfing YouTube for 10 minutes and I can't find a clip of the infamous Rockford Reverse 180 :cry: )

Did your 5 year old even wipe out? He is like the Lee Trevino or WIllie Mosconi of slots. Those guys always talked in golf and pool to throw off the competition. Your son uses a mesmerizing chant to lull the competition into a slow drone of racing.
I like the track too. Didn't hear much clickity clack on the L&J.
some full shots of the layout would be great.

that looks like a load of fun. I was trying to write down the lyrics too, I got through "super burger" and couldn't make out the rest, except for da da da DAH - at which point the 7 y/o wipes out. Brilliant!

Yeah....the 5 yr old is a chatty one!! He's alway hummin' some tune, or talkin' it up. I'll ask my wife if there's a cartoon or show with those lyrics.
They are alot of fun though........when they're good!! They do like the slots most out of all the other stuff they have.

Thanks!!!
