Thanks for looking out m0nkie, but I went to the radio shack near my work and picked up 3. But I really appreciate you checking for me.

They had 5 more left, but I didn't clean them out. Each was only $1.47, which is a great price for the size, detail, and sound. I may go back tomorrow and take the rest of them!

BTW, thanks spcemn_spiff so much for telling us about this!!!

BTW, if any of you cleaned out a store, list the location here so others can avoid it! lol

Good idea! LOL

I'm going to clear out the one in the shopping center next to Mel High (in Melbourne) first thing tomorrow morning, and if I get a chance I may try to hit a couple in Palm Bay.

Just picked 1 up at the Radio Shack on Newport here in Tustin, CA. They had about 5 left. Very cool toy for under 2 bucks.

They had like 4-5 left yesterday at the Radio Shack in Long Beach (next to Boeing). Although, I think that's kinda a far drive to make

Well since i was bored, I decided to open mine up and lower the car, i trimmed the body tabs slightly and now the car sits about "1 inch" lower, there is no wheel gap and the sounds and stuff still works

I was that bored....heh

BTW, during the "acceleration" sound, does your car also seem to hit the rev limiter or something? All 3 of mine sound like they have an audio glitch, but I guess that's just the way all of them are? Maybe this "glitch" is their best representation of the rev limiter?

Mine "accelerates" into 4th gear and holds at a high rpm. The deceleration is my favorite.

Okay. Mine also goes to about 4th. When it "holds at high rpm", it sounds like an audio glitch! It doesn't sounds smooth. Oh well, I was just wondering...

BTW, I bought 2 more from RS. There's 2 more left.

I picked up 3 extra today. Okmulgee, Oklahoma is now sold out. I am going to Stillwater, Ok store tonight to see what they have. If any one is interested, PM me and we'll discuss a price with shipping. I'm guessing around $4 with shipping included.
