from what i can tell, the mods are not as available on microsizers, anyway, whats faster , a fully hopped up zz, or a microsizer, how does run time compare, i know the bodies really suck on the ms, so i may just stick with my zz's, i may go to my hobby shop to test out a ms, just for comparison sake, anyway, thx ahead of time for all responses.

bought my first micro today. They had about 5 diff bodies/kits in stock and the clerk claimed that there are no motor upgrades available in the us but they are on order. It seems faster and it can spin a 360 when turning at high speeds...but the controller is awfull. It has a clever antenna (if you don't want to mod it) but the controll buttons are unresponsive and the charger is on the side...this bothers me for some reason. For $30 or less its worth buying at least one. I almost forgot to mention that I miss the hub caps.

I have a zip zap and some micro sizers. The micro sizers are the same as bit char-g cars. Lots of mods are available. My stock micro sizer is much faster with its 2.2 motor than my zz with the nitro from the faf kit. The ms runs really strong with either the nitro or turbo motor in it. Try it and see. The bodies are nice on the zip zaps. The handling is pretty good too with the longer wheelbase.

If you want to race more than two cars at a time your better off getting bit char-g cars in other frequncies.

It's all a mater of prefences. I'll take my skyline booster 3.8 with 120 mah battery and antenna mod over any zz!
