RC cars aren’t just for kids anymore. Not when your toy can reach speeds up to 60 MPH. Let’s face it, the bigger and faster they are, the more we want one under our Christmas tree.

This particular RC car is gas powered. Hence the power. It’s a 1:5 scale replica of a Ford GT, which is also built for speed. Under the hood is a 23cc engine with 15kb metal gear ratio, 450cc fuel tank, and even disc brakes. Just in case you want to slow down. Yeah right.

It comes pretty much ready to drive, with an assembled chassis, 3-Channel FM Radio and a built-in Fail-Safe mode. $649 will get you this sweet ride almost as tall as your kid. At that price it may be pretty lonely under your tree, but your kid(or you) will be the center of attention on your block.

And the poor squirrels will have something else to look out for.
