Well, i saw the scale models thread and thought there should be one for RC's. I was procrastinating anyway so I made it myself. (I dont know if theres already one going...)
These are mine. Have no idea what scale they are. I just know they are tiny.

the big ones you can buy here: Xmods (http://www.xmodsrc.com) The small ones (except the yellow toyota bB) are called ZipZaps, which radioshack sold awhile back but later discontinued. The yellow bB is another brand called Microsizers, or Bit char-Gs, done by Tomy. I searched for the official site but apparently, they have been discontinued as well. you can still get a few models at the usual shopping sites (Amazon, eBay, etc.)

It has a full working light set, front and rear. Will take better pics once finished.
Still working on it.. Ive cut out the grill area, making up a rollcage, better rims.. etc, etc.. But you get the idea. I enjoy making them up.

This is my 1/10th scale nitro Kyosho V1-RR Evolution with OS Max 12TR motor. Its a mad car, installed a digital speedo which is cool. Had it reading over 80km/hr before I ran out of road, has a fair bit more in it for sure.. The big wing is one of my mods, actually keeps the rear end on the ground a lot better! I've always wanted one of the mini Z's to race around at work.
Looking to sell this one if anyone wants one as I never get time to take it out.. :(
