Tomy was Da Bomb!


I almost forgot about this precious little game I had as a kid. It was a racing game and you had to use the little steering wheel to maneuver your car around the oncoming traffic. If you crashed, an orange red "explosion" lit up. I can't remember if it was run on batteries or by winding the game up like a watch, but it's amazing to me how little was needed to keep my attention back then.

Years later I would pretend to be a Demon Driver as I drove my Mom's station wagon...to prom. Let's just say that this driver was not losing his virginity any time soon. Hmm, perhaps a red Celica could help?
