Ooooh, nice.  I want one of these:
http://store.swrt.com/SWRTstore_details_test.jsp?dept_id=5&prod_id=2001-
MCPET (beware link-wrap).

It's a 2001 spec WRC petrol engined remote control car, with AWD, 2
diffs, adjustable oil filled dampers, glow starter...

I've seen one in action, and it's VERY fast - must hit about 30mph
easily, and it powerslides like the real thing :D

Just the thing for a Subaru Nut :D
