I don't know if your "where's the steering wheel" was rhetorical but the joystick on the left and only a brake pedal on the floor tells me that it's a testbed for an alternative control method. They were ahead of their time...kids today would be able to control it better than with a wheel and gas pedal. <br /><br />It reminds me of Mercury's "Twist Wrist" steering in the mid 60's. I've always wanted that on my car. <br /><br />KOTWJeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16256146821180588093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37353682.post-49878029952271598732011-03-21T08:00:28.951-07:002011-03-21T08:00:28.951-07:00I think the steering wheel for the Ray Brock car i...I think the steering wheel for the Ray Brock car is the joystick on the left side.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37353682.post-53710676476002570142011-03-21T06:35:03.104-07:002011-03-21T06:35:03.104-07:00Who? takes a bug on a deer hunting trip?

I don't see an accelerator pedal either, just a small brake pedal.Marc Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06605121355650119523noreply@blogger.com
