I both love and hate this at the exact same time.

It's really cool, at lower speeds. IF you were to do this at normal race speeds though I think you'd have a lot of trouble keeping up with the inputs without being able to see the track from a wider perspective. Keep in mind when you scale up the speeds relative to the track size and such you're going like 400-600mph down the straights and visibility is pretty bad from the car level.

This I'd been wondering about for a long time. For R/C racing I think it'd require significantly more skill than having a wider perspective of the track demands, like RogueIV pointed out... but looks like a heck of a lot of fun!
Oooo.... wonder how a race car driver piloting on track would fare against an R/C racer piloting from the Skybox...

A lot of driving a real race car is feel and perception, things that you loose in a remote environment.
For instance, if you were to try to control a group of Nascar vehicles remotely, you'd just end up with a bunch of wrecks.

So, Nascar racing then.

I see these Tekno trucks pushing coal barges on the Ohio all the time.

If you want to see something mad in first person radio control then look up fpv drone racing on YouTube , it's like Star wars , totally out of this world but the drones are full of gyros and accelerometers to make them flyable , if you've ever driven a car with a gyro it kind of takes the skill and fun out of it .
I'd bring back propper dirt tracks for sure .
