radio shack sells some pretty killer little LED's, you can wire them to three AAA batteries and install on your car, I think the whole project for my micro and bike costed me about 15 bucks each.. give me a bit and I'll see if I can find you a link with the exact numbers and stuff..
here's the link dude....

last year at a night race, where they had lights, well not really as you couldn't see nothing because the lights were small, I recommended to a friend of mine to use glow sticks, he just zip tied them to his body, and you could see the 8th scale all over the track.

Thanks for all your help. My Ducati 999 nitro bike has an opening in 2 places for a headlight. In the future when I need replacement bodywork (in 2 months of practicing) then I will pursue lighting.
