Can anyone help me please, i am thinking of getting one of these cars and i was just wondering what sort of speeds they do,also what one is the best for indoors on the carpet?

hi,

i considered buying one of those myself, but i heard the HPI micro was better - so i bought the HPI instead. i have to say that the HPI micro is a fantastic car. obviously the plus point is the fact that it runs on standard radio gear, plus there are shed loads of hop-ups available - far more than the kyosho. i run my HPI on 4 1600Mah sanyo batteries (re-chargable). run times last for about an hour - well, i can strech my run times over 2 days!, and it certainly is quick. the belt driven 4WD system really is sweet. i also run a tamtech - again, reputed to be better than the kyosho - but the HPI is better than that aswell. the tamtech motor fits into the HPI, but its a slower motor than the stock HPI one.

the HPI is a tough little beast aswell, you try driving one around your living room after a few stella,s and you,ll see.......[]

have fun!,

james.

I like my mini-z. Are you looking to race or just play around? I have owned both and I like the Z better. Not as fast as the Micro but if you want fast, get a 1/10. I like the hard plastic shells better than the clear ones. My dog hates me hehe from chasing him and he cannot damage my electrics because of the shell. Cost of the Z rtr is alot cheaper than the Micro. Get a used Z for only 60 dollars with everything. I love it!!!!!!!! []
