Two people modify a car to recreate Back to the Future effects, rigging lights to glow at 88 mph and wiring a GPS speedometer with a relay to trigger them. They mention 1.21 gigawatts and add an '80s radio to complete the build.

Everything had something to do with the movie.
Yeah.
So then, and then the power 1.21 gigawatts burst through these bands, and they would they would glow. You know, at 88 miles per hour, they would glow. So I rigged a GPS system. So when the car hits 88 miles per hour, all those lights go go berserk like they're going through time. Oh really? Yeah. Oh, that little black ball that's right. Oh, that's it. Yeah, it's a GPS. That's a little GPS. Right there. It's tied into the— it's tied into the digital speedometer, which is tied into a little, a little relay. So when the digital speedometer hits 88, so it does line up, it sends a signal to that. You have the radio from the '80s.
