Why don’t we send TorchBug to space. I have a GoPro. We need a weather ballon, parachute, and gps tracker. Who is with me?

Here is my inspiration for the idea

I’m surprised Torchbug hasn’t taken flight on a drone.

You know with a big enough weather balloon we could send the real thing up there!

Listen, his car was already stolen once, so we put the GPS tracker in as a way to help him in the future, and then fly it to space, cause ... Reasons

I’ve got a handful of nitrous canisters, party balloons, a pillow case and a treasure map from the back of a 1994 box of captain crunch.. we can make this work..

Isn’t it though? That would have to be the highest any model car has ever gone I would assume

I wouldn’t mind giving the bug a tour of the central coast.

That is what I am saying! The only thing holding us back is ourselves!

I am from Ohio but the bug could see the central coast from space!

I assume it's there. Unless there's one on the Space Station.

This is a really cool idea. But I remember hearing those balloons were about 2-3 thousand dollars so we’ll have to get some crowd funding going. but this could be really cool.

Yeah they’re not pennies. It costs some dough. i could also be totally wrong, but I looked into doing this a few years ago.

But it could be the first classic model car in space.
