Ahhhh... very good point, but if you can still get them for 50 bucks at rcmodels.com, then WOW!!! I spend 20-30 bucks on a microsizer locally. An extra 20 plus shipping would get you the ultimate table car, in my opinion.
I was just mussing around with a Zip Zap track on my kitchen table and made a weird figure 8 kidney-style track and noticed that I cannot run my 2 or 3 cell cars on it because even with the boost off they are too fast. However on the straights and jumps they are fine. I have a clone PCB in a MS chassis with a green ZZ motor(slow) and low low gears. That's the only car I can run on a technical track that is 4 foot by 4 foot or so. None of my other cars are any fun unless I have at least 8x8 feet to play. The 3cell Puchi seems to be the greatest thing I have seen yet for tiny racing. Enough punch and power to push through a sliding turn, or hit a jump. Enough speed contol to slow down for the technical stuff.
I wonder how long it will last with the added cell. Probably indefinately (until the cells need repl.) it sounds. If it's not getting hot or fritzing out, I gotta get one.
Thanks for posting the pic. Can you get your hands on a video? Maybe comparing it to his Epoch or multi cell bit/ Zap? That would make my day.
