Does anybody know of a good website where I can learn more about Takara Penny Racers from the early 80's? Specifically I'd like to know how many there were, which ones came in "glow in the dark", and what a good prices for loose and carded ones is.
I totally forgot how fun these things were until I found a couple of them in a box.

Penny Racers are a line of small deformed (sort of scrunched up) cars of the "pull back and go" class. What makes them really special is they have a slot on the rear bumper and if you put a penny into it (hence the term "penny racer") they sorta do tricks and spin around. I think they are a blast although these days I just have a couple of cheap knock offs.
