A few weeks back someone posted a link to a site where you could but mini radio controlled scoobs. I think the site was based in Hong Kong. I ordered 2 and now I can't remember the web site..I need to check how my order is progressing, does anyone still have the link?

From previous threads, it seems that most ppl bought from either stellamodels in ebay or toyeast.
The Bitchargs are available in the UK, but at £50 each, it is twice the price of buying one from HK.

I got a Bit Char G last week, it's the ****! Bought a Scoob for myself and an EVO for a mate. I didn't tell him that I'd bought the 2.6 engine as well and thrashed his pants in the first race. He thought he'd got a wrong'un.

If anyone ever played Micro Machines, it's like that but you don't need a telly.

Bought in Taiwan the cars were under £20.00 and the engine was about a quid.

I think you can buy them on the official subaru world rally team site http://www.swrt.com or you might try one of the online gadget shops like Firebox http://www.firebox.com, I remember reading somewhere that the best ones to go for are the Mini-z racers (also the most expensive)
