    AFAIK, they are not models, they are real cars/karts for kids.
    Like a junior NASCAR, think i came across those before somewhere.

    1:5 I guess
    There's young fella down in Wicklow. He's racing them all over the Europe and club in Arklow, I think :confused:

    Nope.
    Not 1/5 I am afraid
    I guess they are junior cars of some sort. ;)

    They're a lot bigger than 1:5, i'd say more than likely not a proper scale, somewhere between 1:3 and 1:2.
    Where did you find the pics... that might give a clue...

    shame they are so blurry hard to see if there is anyone in them. I read in an old RCCA that there was this place running 1:4 Grand Am racecars with camera, and driver sat at an arcade console and raced remotely. Looks a bit like them.
