maybe they should change the competition to Worlds Fastest Toy Car?

The Mythbusters rigged up a full sized RC car with 6 rockets on it, went well over 200 mph

funny you should mention that. the first rule says.

Wheel-driven vehicles only. Vehicles powered by thrust (jet, rocket, propeller, etc.) are not allowed. Turbine power is allowed only if the turbine is used to drive the wheels, not for thrust.

thats what I was referring to, the page of requirments and caviots that go along with the 'World's Fastest RC Car Contest' title

you cant claim to be the best / fastest /strongest... in the world, if you slap a bunch of restrictions on the contest.

The fastest electric RC car that I know of did around 110 mph. Some 24 batteries driving a 2 turn brushless motor.
15,000 RPM at the wheels!!!!
