And the future is X-Mod cars!
They are mint. I think they are 1:16scale (about 6 inches long)
I have the skyline one. You can get various different cars.
You can change almost everything!
You get them in radio shack and here is a link to the.
X-Mod cars
I have the Black skyline with the following up-grades
- Front and rear lights (brake lights work when you put the brakes on lol)
- Stage 2 motor
- chrome wheels kit
- all wheel drive kit
- undercar neon kit
And before i go home i am getting the metal bearing kit, body kit and full suspension!
I love being a man beacuse you can play with toy cars at any age! 
These are mint 
If anyone wants some pictures or more info add me to msn!

Yes yes - I very nearly bought one of those JR... thank fuck I didn't though - my car sits on the shelf now 
Regardless the point is - either of these would thrash one of these little pieces of rubbish that are being sold.

Don't be stupid - as a R/C car it'll be the biggest pile of shit ever!
yet you have one 
eitherway, a decent leccy or nitro RC car will do around 40mph  and my mates nitro RC touring car does around the 50-60mark, which is impressing for something thats about foot long although it cost him a far wack though

I have one what?
I have a full sized rc car. It's only a crappy carbon shumacher mission chassis - with a 19 turn modified motor and stuff...
but I'm saying compared to these 'gimmick' 6 inch long R/C cars they're chatting about - it'll thrash them.
lol I thought my original tamiya car I had when I was 10 was fast. Then I thought the 27 turn motor that came with this shumacher carbon mission was fast - but this 19 turn motor is really quick (basically impossible to drive it on tarmac as the wheels just spin - so you end up drifting everywhere) - I used to race it on carpet at slough RC club (basically took over a school's gym and laid down carpet over the whole area) so only have carpet tyres though
I know you can get quicker motors than 19 turn - but this was plenty!
