Hey! I found the 'official' fakes!
http://www.char-g.com/
What a laugh, they claim to be the 'Official Site for Char-G' (clone) cars.

Yeah, not to mention they say they have up to 4 frequencies...But absolutely NO INFORMATION on their cars.
I think I'm going to start a new webpage too...The OFFICIAL Bit Jar-Jar cars.

copyright infringment implies that it was actually copyrited. I dont think there is anything we can do unless its published on this site, and they put it there without credit to TRC. That would be plagiarism.

this might be an immature approach to it, but why not send in more mods, but make em fake mods......then, they might A: mess up their car, or B: get a bunch of bad mail from other viewers....just a thought from a 15 year old..-lol

Very bad idea.... There are thousands of people that come here to browse the tips, and how to mods, and to get ideas. A fake bogus thread would only screw up the innocent readers that don't realize your motive, and in turn give tinyrc bad publicity that they don't deserve.

Why not just appreciate the recognition? Hey you're famous...it was so good they used it. There's not much else you can do anyway.
Everybody's jumping on them like they're slime, but like GreatDane said, maybe they're cars aren't all that bad. They shouldn't be calling them Char-G's tho.
