Hum. Thoses times are shocking. Wonder what will occure at the next race day. Will there be more ZZ or more hopped up Bits?

Wonder what the powerplant, tires and suspension were in the bits vs the ZZ. Also how many turns for the track. Were they "stock" ZZ or have been hop up with the kits?

This is getting interesting. Remindes me of the TRS Color Computer. A plain jane computer on the outside and its spects but had serious power when you hoped it up and stomped on the gas!

Really? Official release is Tuesday. If you have time, write a letter to Radio Shack Customer Service.

xsboost94, did you change the charger to adjust for the additional voltage?

usagi · #81 09-23-2002, 09:56 AM

Geeeee, this is a strange car, but there is noway I can get one way out here.

Well first of all Id like to introduce myself. This is my first post here, although I have been watching this board and the Bit scene for over a month now.

I just wanted to saw count yourselfs LUCKY guys! I have NO way to get a hand on a Bit Char-G, a Clone, DigiQ or a ZipZap at all! I went into a local RadioShack and the Manager told me that they were getting them in !!!DECEMBER!!!

I am thinking that either:
1. They are extreme lazy asses, It doesnt take 3 months to put on some goofy french words and ship the cars to Canada. or
2. They are using this as a marketing ploy, aiming for this to be the Christmas fad for this year.

either way it really sucks for me because I still cant get ahold of any Mini Cars or parts if I order one. And if im going to order, Id like to get it from the states and Ill definately get a real-deal Bit Char-G.

If anyone knows, What is the best/Cheapest site to get Bits in the US? Id like to get the 3 Body Skyline Set G-23, or A booster set depending on a few things. I found the cheapest to be the Junky Spot @ $31.99 for the G-23 set. But I emailed them and still havnt got a response about CDN shipping info. If anyone knows PLEASE let me know cause Ive been looking for one for over a month now

If you have any info Plz post here or email me @ Need4Speed210@Hotmail.com

Theres my first rant! Thx all and goodnight!!

Bastards at customs seem to take everything that is shipped especially in the Christmas season. They take the gifts for their kids and relatives, which is exactly like my airsoft guns. Asses.

dumboi07 · #87 09-23-2002, 11:00 PM

sorry to all u custom guys out there that dont take toys haha

Need4Speed210 · #88 09-23-2002, 11:27 PM

yeah, although thats possible, im not really concerned about that. Ill most likely get it insured anyway. To LEGALLY confiscate something I imagine it must be illegal and they must prove it. But with insurance it cant just go missing. I know where your comming from with the airsoft tho

. I myself was getting into that a few months ago. Wanted to get an AEG. But since the customs are the way they are, its a %50/%50 chance they make it across. I ended up getting a MP5 Springer which cost me over double what it should have

Anyone else got any ideas? thx

xsboost94 · #89 09-24-2002, 02:28 AM

you can order it right here on tinyrc.com. its cheaper than other places i know. jdmtoys.c om has more cars but cost more.
