Hack Your Ride

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the practical-hacklications dept.

LukePieStalker writes "Monday's Boston Globe has a story on the global market for car chippers. The article describes a global subculture of "drivers who reprogram their vehicles and the companies that keep them supplied with high-performance software and silicon chips". One nice hack: a car chipped-up for the race track can be set back to factory specs for the street simply by pushing the cruise control button."

    One nice hack: a car chipped-up for the race track can be set back to factory specs for the street simply by pushing the cruise control button.
    And to turn cruise control on you simply crawl out of your car (while moving) crawl out while moving, run up to the front of the car, lift the hood, crawl out of the car, and then lift the hood and open up the top! LOL! It's so easy it's easy!
