I saw that Wipeout thing the other day - It looks awesome if you ask me!

is it fo' real? as in, is it actually using what its says its using? or is it one of those clever editing things that have been fooling us old ones? i mean, im confused. eh. what. could this really happen? i mean, im all for realising computer games into modern society.. and hover cars would be awesome.. but is this real? JIST just seems to be a bit of phony name..

sorry. im knee deep in human anatomy revision and im grasping how the human body works.. let alone how some guy in a white coat is using physics for transport improvements..

why are the little track floaty cars smoking on the way round?

They're smoking because of the liquid nitrogen cooling which is required for this superconductive behavior (which in turn is a quantum mechanic phenomenon).
