Default s2k Racer Invents New Laser Game

Many of you may know me as Greenlight. I usually contribute on the Under the Hood forum.

I have been working for the last 2 years to invent, develop, design, and now sell a new and innovative two player board game called Deflexion. The game uses real lasers and mirrors. Newsweek included us in an article they wrote in February in reference to the International Toy Fair and said the game was "..really cool.." and Wired Magazine will feature our game in their Christmas issue as a "top 10 must have items" for Christmas 2005. The Boston Globe is working on an article that will come out in November.

It's really cool and I would appreciate if you guys and gals would check out my website:


www.deflexion.biz


I just received the first shipment of games two days ago and they are selling like hotcakes (do hotcakes sell really fast ???).

Please forward this web address to all of your buddies.

The profits will help me continue to race my F20C powered rear engine dragster.

My car has run a 7.996 in the quarter mile and we set the NHRA F/Dragster national record at an 8.12 earlier this year (naturally aspirated on gasoline).


Thanks,

Project Greenlight

Good idea, but you really need a better video depicting gameplay.

You likely won't see it in Wal-Mart or Target anytime soon, but we have made some sales to independent toy stores. You can order it directly from our web site www.deflexion.biz . We will ship it by UPS ground usually within 24 hours.

As our list of independent toy stores gets larger we will include their names on our web site.

As for the video, it's the best that amateur videographers/professional engineers can do.

Thanks for taking a look at the web site.
