Wow, you can get a Autococker for cheap money now.
Been a while since I've played, but the Autococker was always king back in the day. I had one fully modified about 4 years when I played regularly.
If that WGP marker Sports Authority is offering isn't a dumbed down Autococker, I'd grab that. 5 years ago a base model was at least $500, but worth every penny.
