Today I went to Radio Shack for a $2 item and left with a cool $49 1:6 scale remote control car. It's almost too cool to play with. Heck, I didn't even buy a battery for it. I thought I would just display it in my office until I got home with it. It's just too big to set anyplace. I may have to hang it. lol



Someone needs to lower one of these, swap the wheels and paint it to match thier car.

Larry, you need something in the pic to give it scale. The thing is massive.

Throw a dollar by it and snap a pic.

I thought the remote would do it. Hang on.

This may give you the best idea of it's size.

It's too big to put in my book case.

LOL! It's and old one that Turbonetics used on a dyno engine. I begged for one to decorate my office. Now, I need a wheel to mount on the wall of my garage to hang my air hose on.

Larry,
Man that thing is huge! Very cool. 4th gen seats are cool along with the LS1.

Here is a 67 Z28 my brother bought me for X-mas. It spins out pretty good. It is a Nikko I believe. Pretty fun. It will be great for car shows!

That's interesting. Quite a bit of "Prodigy" in that remote control car. Wonder where they got the idea for the wing and the custom roll bar.

Hmmmmm...........

Hmmmmm...........

It is made after the Year One Camaro of Kevin King's, hence the Year One stickers on it and the Power Tour one also on the windsheild. Dunno why they did not make it white and orange though. He was stoked about it when the decided to do it.
