Hey Ray,

Those things are the exact same thing as last year's christmas fad, except they look like REAL cars.

The sales guy at my local model shop told me they could order one but they dont keep them in stock, this was almost a year ago but I guess they could still get them. It was a second gen SC2(cant remember the exact year) but thats better than nothing, no way I would ever find a first gen SC1. LOL

Nah,these things are much better than zip zaps(I guess thats what your talking about?).

I work for radioshack and they will only let me buy one. Think Customer's First. whatever that is bull. Quite a bit different from the zip Zaps. I am still not a fan of the body kits but as you know we get to play with most of the toys. It is too fast for the stock suspension. I.E. everytime you turn at speed the rear wheels lift up. the suspension upgrade is probably the best upgrade for these things. the red springs in back and the next step down in front. The rear is much too heavy.

I am not trying to sell you on them but they are pretty cool. helluva lot better than the unzippy zaps. those things are too slow to be a cat toy.

They look alot better than zip zaps, maybe I'll check them out. Hopefully their range between the control and the car is far enought to cause some mischief! Sucks that you can only get one.

Dood, the range is verygod, I was at my friends house yesterday playing with mine in the street and they would be so far away they were hard to see but still controlled great.

whoops I messed up. the blue suspension is actually the best. the thing fawking handles with it on there. also the little red tie rods help for toe in or out on the front. kinda cool but not much diff between the three. the nice thing. the mods actually come of use in these things unlike the zip zaps. I was surprised at how much faster the suspension made it. slalom around the boxes

. I am probably going to get the skyline and use it as a sorta rally thingy. suspension change to somthing else. bigger springs so that it sits higher. maybe? I dont know a bit faster than a pet toy needs to be.
