The only thing that I can think of is to make sure that your video card drivers/software isn't overriding the game and keeping V-Sync disabled.

If the car still won't move, I don't know what else to suggest. Sorry.

how do i know that there is something overriding my game

What type of video card/chipset do you have? AMD's Radeon software has a "Wait for Vertical Refresh" (aka Vertical Sync, or V-Sync) option that can be set to default to on or off, unless an application says otherwise; or it can be set to always be on or off (overriding any application setting). I'm guessing that Nvidia has a similar option.

The Radeon software also has an "Enhanced Sync" option that tries to handle "vertical sync" in a different way and doesn't limit the frame rate. Using that disables the Radeon options mentioned above, and might also cause problems in the game (since the frame rate isn't limited). I don't know if Nvidia has a similar option.

There could also be other graphic/video utility software out there with similar options.

Edit:
My first thought was more about what could do that, not how you could tell if it was happening.

To see if V-Sync is actually on, have Steam (or something else) display your frame rate on the screen while you're playing. Assuming that your system can play the game faster than the 60 Hz (or whatever) that is set in the game options, the displayed frame rate will be higher if V-Sync is disabled.

i had the same issue, V-sync didn't help me either, so what i did was lower all the settings to the lowest possible then it worked, for me i just played around with the graphics settings.

so the remote car not working is a graphic settings issue?

Something like that. Playing this game without V-Sync can affect how some objects in this game interact. I don't know how/why, but it does. The most common thing seems to be problems with the RC car, but it can cause a number of other issues.

For example, I was playing once with AMD's "enhanced sync" turned on, which replaces the regular V-Sync, and there was a point where I had to ride a platform up and then jump up to the surface right above that, and I just couldn't make that jump. It was a simple jump, but it just wasn't working. The moment I disabled enhanced sync (without exiting the game), the jump worked.

Another example was a problem that someone else reported, but then I saw it too. There's a part where you're supposed to tow some trucks to a pickup point and you have to go over a jump, and without V-Sync, the trucks would get released when you went over the jump. With V-Sync, they stayed attached (like they're supposed to).

And then there are those people that have apparently fixed problems by changing some graphic settings. I don't know if that's caused by the same issue(s) in the game, or something else.
