I thought it was pretty self explanatory.

I made it.

NFSCarbon has a feature where you can take screenshots of your cars and they automatically upload to the internet, along with what performance mods you have on the car at the time you take the picture.

It's a Vauxhall Monaro VXR. I tried to make it look as much like a GP as I could.

The game has endless customization. You can fiddle with the aftermarket stuff, tweak everything; how deep the recesses are in the body parts, how big the grill is, how far everything sticks out, how big, tall, wide the parts are, etc etc so on and so forth forever.

So that took me awhile. Lots of tweaking. lol

I played the snot out of that game. I was never impressed with the performance of the Monaro on there frown Maybe I just couldn't tune it but I could never win a race with it.

There is one for the 360, but I haven't tried it yet .. I think it's pretty new. So far all the other Xbox accesories seem like quality stuff, it's worth a try.

If your son just has the original Xbox, I don't know what to tell you. lol I never had one of those, so I don't really know much about the accessory market for them.

At least it's not the Steel Battalion setup.

that looks a lot like that rig they offered for Mech Assault a year or so ago...but hey, if it was a bad-azz set up with a gearshift and some steering feel I might be tempted.

I had a steering wheel for my N64 back in the day. I found it harder to control the car than with the controller. Hopefully they've perfected it in the last 10 years.
