this is one thing that really bugs me. my advice, people only make fun of others when they no it gets to you. if you just say yeah i like computers. what are they going to say? Hahaha you like computers? They can't make fun of you for what you like. There is nothing to be made fun of. Sorry. I could go on forever... anyways. i like the head lights idea, and i will probably just get wheels that can spin. so i can atleast push it. it will be cool even without a remote control. i think it would cost to much get a powerful enough motor.

Yeah, you would have to custom gear it and that could get messy. If you could, it might be neat to mount an Flat Panel Monitor on the side and make it one complete unit. You could use use a cheap 15" dell one that you could borrow or something. Then you could put a power strip inside the case and only have one cord to plug it.

Maybe I'm going overboard, but it looks sweet in my mind.

Well if you are worried about the weight, how about simply downsizing the entire PC? A mini ITX case and system are pretty light (<10lb).

Or hell, you could go with pico-itx and literally fit it into an RC car.

Hmmmmmmmmm.. Incorparating a r/c car into a computer case..Looks over at his nitro truck..... May have to figure that one out.. You could always get a Traxxas E-Maxx w/twin motors it'll pull it.

i can't change the case size, because i will be given the case.

i'm either just going to put wheels at the bottom (just normal wheels so i can push it), or fans there. i'm thinking that when the fan are spinning they might look like a wheel.

That could look nice, cut off the outside and epoxy them or something. You could get some of the silver coated ones and make it look like a pimped out bus.
