The folks at Vodafone together with McLaren have put together the sweetest viral piece I’ve seen in quite a while now…Called ‘Simon & Steve’s RC Grand Prix Adventure’, the whole thing starts out with two buddies that rig up a remote control F1 car (Lewis Hamilton’s McLaren F1 ride) to use the BlackBerry Storm for steering and throttle. That alone was pretty cool.

But there’s more…

After supposedly watching Simon & Steve’s initial video, The Vodafone McLaren F1 team rigged up their own BlackBerry Storm to work the steering and throttle on an actual McLaren F1 car! Ridiculous! Words really don’t do this one justice… Check out the video above. Any F1 fan will get a HUGE kick out of it. Can’t wait for the season to start now. Woohoo!
