    American mini r/c's "Zip Zaps" at radio shack, $19.99 for kit

    I have one of these zipzap puppies and also purchased the fast and furious tuner kit. Not bad at all. They are less cartoonish (same size as a hot wheels car), changeable hubcaps, motors, body, sway bars, and tires. Granted the mustang kit I got didn't quite look scaled right but the fast and...

    COOL: World smallest RC Car $19.95

    jharris, There's no channel selector switch. Apparently there are 4 different colored cars with 4 different channels but each controller is made specific per car (and Toyeast only has the white and silver on their site). Also no trim on controller. Only trim is the one for the steering such...

    Well, I just got my oem bit and oem digi-q today. Hooray! While I was waiting for these to arrive, I went ahead and purchased the micro-mites from Towerhobbies to satisfy my impatience. Comparing the three, the oem bit was the most satisfying with speed from a 2.6 motor and fairly decent...

    COOL: World smallest RC Car $19.95

    Just signed up to this forum cause it ROCKS! Ummm, question from a newbie. I chickened out of my order with toyeast.com (well, it's just waiting for me to send CC info) cause I was concerned about duties/import tax. Are there any additional fees we have to pay once it gets here to the U.S...
