[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A remote controlled amusement device comprising a pair of shell parts mounted juxtaposed each other with a slight gap therebetween, each of said shell parts having an outer peripheral surface contacting wall of circular cross section, said surface contacting walls being coaxial with each other, each of said shell parts having a side wall extending generally perpendicular from its said surface contacting wall, said side wall of each of said surface contacting walls being remote from said side wall of the other of said surface contacting walls, said surface contacting walls and said side walls forming a split housing which is split at said gap, connecting structure securing said shell parts together for independent movement of said shell parts with respect to each other, a separate drive mechanism for each of said shell parts in said housing for causing said shell parts to move independently of each other upon actuation of said drive mechanisms, each of said outer peripheral walls and its connected said side wall being jointly rotated by its said drive mechanism whereby said entire split housing is rotatable, said shell parts in combination with each other giving the appearance of a simulated free standing vehicle tire without creating the appearance of said tire simply being a component of a simulated vehicle, and reception means in said device for receiving signals from a remote control unit for independently rotating said shell parts.
