Online users will be prompted to print out an image of Newman’s Impala ([URL=http://www.goarmy.com/home/argame/AugmntdRlty_PlmCrd.pdf]PDF[/URL]) to utilize as a virtual steering wheel, in conjunction with a webcam, to control the car onscreen.

The racing game is said to be “an extension of the U.S. Army's continuing effort to showcase its high-tech skills training and the various options and career opportunities it offers.”
