I am visiting HKand I was walking around the mall today and they had a mini fully functional RCcar that was a black celica made by Tomica it is charged with a couple double A batteries and can run in stretches of up to 2 minutes. It has a 9.86:1 gear ratio and charges in 45 seconds. FIts in the palm of your hand. the car is like the size of a hotwheels car and it has a chip in it. I thought it was the coolest thing I will prob go back and buy it later unfortunatly there is only 1 celica there they had a NSX and a lancer also. I was just wondering if you guys ever head of such a thing. If I can come across some more you guys think I shuold buy them and bring them back to the states, they cost abuot $30 US.

yep... Bit CHAR-Gs. They're pretty fun, especially with the 3.0 motor and tire upgrades. I play around with mine at the office every once in awhile when I'm bored.

my 3.0 motor blew up within 1 minute of use, too much boost. Even the RC celicas are plagued with high compression!!
