OMG I just found the greatest clone
i was walking around aimlessly and wandered in a gift shop (shut up) and i came across these clones called R/C MicroRacer. They had a box set which came with controller, chassis, 2 shells and 3 pylons. There was also the typical clone dome packaging. Both were same brand (R/C MicroRacer) but the one in the dome did not have the cones or the extra shell. The dome cost 9.99 and box cost 10.99 (all figures canadian, so that's pretty cheap, like 7 american). i bought the box one cuz i figured hey what the hell, a dollar more and i get an extra shell. it cale with a decent rx-7 shell, this isnt crappily made like a precious or shen, no stickers, everything is printed on and it doesnt look too bad it's ok i guess. and the other shell was a mini cooper. that one is ok too. but what surprised me the most was the motor. On first run, it ripped up my carpet. So i suddenly got the urge to race it against my r-spec and my perfection. It beat them both (when it happened i was like WTF?????????). I have yet to try it on my 4.2's, 4.0's and phast motor. but seeing the results so far, it'll prolly beat the 4.2's and 4.0's dunno bout phast motor tho. Anyways i tested the motor in my real cars/bits and they work the same. It's amazing. The original set i got, the car was missing idler gear and the rod that the idler gear attaches to on this car is wider than on a bit so you need their idler gear, bit ones wont work (everything else is interchangable except idler gear). So since i was gonna exchange it, i figured what the hell, and i switched the motor with my panther motor then i exchanged it. So now i have 2 of those motors. Btw dont ask me what motors they are, the box just says 3.0B cuz they copied bitchar-g, but if these things smoke my perfection, they're more than 3.0. Pics can be made available if you guys want, but i had work today (9am-11pm) and work tomorrow (11:30am-11pm, i'm a busy 17 year old kid) so i prolly cant get the pics up until like monday or something. Anyways these are now my new favourite clones by far. If any of you see em, buy one, or 2, or 3.
