i thought it was just some small little cheap r/c car....
is it fast mizike? is it like the R/C cars here? that require those long battery packs that have 6 individual batteries wrapped in one? or is it gas powered?
i kinda want one now that i know its not some ceap little toy, or IS it? im confused....on ebay they ave ones that look nice, but this one looks kinda cheap...

. It requires 2 AA batteries....you need the heavy duty type though cause I had ones that were for just calulators and flashlights and it died in about 10 mins. It's too much fun. I bought a few pump from this guy locally and he had the remote controll car for sale for $40.00.....I didn't have the money at the time. Then my buddy at work got it for me as my present for the "secret santa" game the office was having. I was supprised and happy.
I just looked at the instruction sheet and the website is
www.taiyo.toy.co.jp
For some reason it's not working....keep trying though.

knowledge junkie
I forgot to take pics of the Palm Runners. That's the best one in my opinion, but I don't open the boxes (collection only) so I'm not sure about how the model car performs.

I just got that the other week (kyosho palm runner). I'll post pics when I get home...I got the white one, nice detail, comes w headlights in the up/down position to emulate the way the car looks in the DVD's running through the mountain pass at night, cool stuff!! It's really only fun if you have a cat to chase around w/ it and torture 
The little display case is a nice touch too!! I like that AE86 one they have as well...I'd actually like to pick one of those hatch backs up one day as a project car, they are cheap and fun!! There is a white one and a red one locally both w/ the TRD kits w/lots of cool mods that autoX around here all the time. Very cool looking cars and did I mention cheap?!?!?!
