Biggest problems on this clones are the tires - way too hard and the steering - canīt give you the small circles a bit char g do. 
If you want to run it on small tracks - forget the clones. If not be happy with it...

Yea thats definetly a clone. I would go with a bit char-g. Even though it is more expensive, it is worth it!.

well... i have a clone car, and even with the bit char-g parts, its like trying to make a dodge caravan into a drag racer. Its just not suited. You can hop clones up as much as you like, but the quality of the chassis is just not as good. parts of it break and don't line up right, and it wears out faster. real Bit char-g cars can take a lot of abuse compared to most clones.

trust me clones are clones they will never surpass the original it is very tempting to see a car for 15 bux but the quality is definetly no good. good idea to ask first

what about those lxx clones? they are essantially a carbon copy of a bit char g except they don't wear a tomy logo, they are oem, probably the best clones out there. Honestly though i would stick with a bit char g or a microsizer, the real deal, and yes that particular clone is compatible with microsizer parts, just i wouldn't want it.

yea the LXX are pretty nice but u have to pay a little more than the average clone but its still not quite as solid as the originals. Dont get me wrong my first car (that I got last year) was a clone i guess cuz i see alot more of them now. it just broke last month so it had a good run in my book..
