Help finding R/C car

A friend of mine had this little remote control car and I want one, but I don't know where he got it. I would ask him but he is in Arizona right now. It is the size of a hotwheel, and you recharge the car by putting it on the remote control. The remote control is round and it has a clear dome that attaches to it. The car goes on the remote inside the dome when its not being used. Anybody know what it is called or where I can get one? They are damn fun to play with.

I currently have a "Zip Zap" from Radio Shack Mazda RX-8. You can get them in different bodies, motors, etc. I prefer the japanese "Tomy Bit Char-g" toys over these, though. More selection of cars and motors. eBay has tons of em for sale.

Thats not them. The remote takes a 9 volt battery(or maybe 2 AA). You use the remotes battery to charge the cars.

Its not what I was looking for, but I might end up getting one of those if I can find a body I like.

Two for twenty beans at my favorite Web site:

American Science and Surplus

You get two different frequencies, so that you can race! But since they're Surplus, you don't get to pick the style.

Hey, what do you want for twenty beans?

That is exactly what I was looking for. Now I have to decide if I want them or the ones Negatize found.

Thanks for you help guys.

Get the Tomy ones, they are more expensive, but the quality is much better and last a lot longer...plus you can get new bodies..
