Not "tiny", but WOW!
Went into my local Radio Shack the other day...they now have a Dodge Viper that is AWESOME!! Not sure the scale, but too big to be considered tiny; was about 18" long...it was more like a "real" r/c car than most of the toys they have there. Of course, it's $200...out of my league, but I thought I'd pass the info along to the group. (according to their website, it does 18mph stock.)
Maybe the Shack will start putting out more hobby quality stuff?
Hmmmmmm......

IMO, if it says radioshack on it, its not hobby grade. but thats cause their current stuff is crap, compared to real RC cars (HPI, Kyosho, Team AE, etc)

i agree... i have an old 1980s Radio shack from my grampa (LOL!) and its purty kool... its kinda heavy but my bro a few years back said hed try it and i told him (and these are my exact words to) "stay away from the fence cuz you suck at driving remote control cars!". well, wutta ya know, my good ole bro decides to show off a bit at a "super fast speed" of approx. 10-15mph and hits the fence and busted the steering knuckle... im gonna try and fix it but i need some bulk plastic to make one out of. hope you enjoyed my lil story!
