Introducing A Time Delay Into RC Car Steering

A local STEAM program is looking into using an RC car or truck to simulate operating a vehicle on the moon or other astronomical object. One big opportunity to excel is introducing a time delay (say five seconds) into the steering system to model the time required for radio to go signals to and from the vehicle. The first thought is to buffer the command string at the transmitter or receiver. Ideas, hints, suggestions?
