It absolutely is. The first TV remotes were wired to the TV. Source: am old.
Here’s an example of a wired cable TV remote. Remote meant you didn’t need to get up to change the channel. Or for a car, it means you could walk behind it instead of pushing it manually.
Except “RC” literally stands for “remote controlled”.
What you had were uncontrolled toy cars.
Is a long wire not remote?

They were certainly controlled. They just weren’t radio controlled. C cars instead of RC cars. lol
Aah. Those things. I remember those things.
The way you described it, sounded like the cars didn’t have controls. My brain was too tired to put it together with memories that far back.
Thanks for the clarity. Be well.
