I have a Radio Shack Golden Arrow, circa approx mid 90s, I need to get new rubber, not sure of the scale (how to find out?), is there a good place for regular old parts for these things? This is electric. Just invested $26 in new pack and charger so I'd like to get this thing up to par for my kid so I can get a gas powered! WoooHOO

Answer
I don't know if they have direct replacements for the Radio Shack cars but try Tower Hobbies.
THey have a LARGE selection of tires &* wheels

Where can I find information on rc cars?

I dont know anything about the difference between nitro rcs and regular... I was looking for a site that could explain the differences and what i would need when purchasing one. I looked at a site that showed the different rcs and one of them had nitro rcs and then another had nitro rcs packaged deals, whats the difference. THank you, I hope I wasn't too confusing.

Answer
Basically there are 3 types of hobby spec RC cars; electric, nitro and petrol.
Don't think the electric ones are the toy ones people get at Christmas when they're kids, they're not. Nitro RC cars are the ones with the little screaming engines, that only run on special fuel and not petrol. Then there are petrol powered RC cars which are huge and hugely expensive.

Different sites will sell batteries and fuel with the cars, called a package deal, others just sell the cars and you have to buy the fuel and batteries separately.
