Darda Cars: anyone know what scale?

I was looking around at cheap slotcar sets and stumbled on these:

Darda Cars

They have some kind of cool bodies, Porsche, Mustang, Mice, Hippos... I'm not kidding. It's weird.

I'm wondering if anyone knows what scale they are, or more importantly, are they HO scale?

Why you ask? Because they have a Mach 5 body that is awesome.

not sure exactly..but i have played with them before, and from what i remember, they are probably a close fit. You should try it out!

There is a local toy store called Abra-Kid-abra that carries those. I saw them there and they look just the right size. I didn't see any Mach 5's though. Maybe I'll stop by there tomorrow after work and take a close look (and take my ZZ in with me

They have 2 of them out to play with on the track

Now if I could only find some local retailer that actually sells them.

There were lots on ebay last week (but I can't find any now). If you don't like ebay, I can pick you up one at my local retailer. It would be $8.00 +tax +$1 shipping.
