I once had an RC car, but it was with a battery pack. It could go 45Km/u though, whish was extremely fast for such RC cars (I'm talking like 20 years ago). After a few years of fun with it, I crashed it to bits doing crazy jumps and loopings... :p)

If you were intelligent you would know that if it was to be hovering over the ground it would not "burn rubber" because friction is minimal.
Well it's not going to magically hover...its gonna lose speed and fall onto the ground, where the the tires go from "no" resistance (air) to the ground and when it makes contact, it'll burn extra rubber due to the speed difference (thus why there are lots of rubber on ends of runways)
air != no resistance.

EDIT: Added image. I had a look at it just now and electronics are still go, responds to the remote like it should. Just need to get the engine started and it should be all good to go.
It runs :D :D Just took it for a spin, looked very good, just that it stalled at one point, after which it refused to start properly (partly because the heater had no more power) so I took a break. I'll clean it up and try to get it running reliably once I have more time on my hands (33 days of army service to go :D).

What a royal waste of money. Idea; put the money in the bank and save up to buy a real car when you're of age lol. I'm sure that way you'll have more fun and it'll be less of a novelty.

I assure you in one month you'll be sick of going outside and watching the car go backwards and forwards

Not really :S, say I did get bored of it, then I would tune it, and upgrade parts, and change the chassis etc. And then I would start doing some bigass jumps!
