If you can find a Shen Qi Wei or Micro RC Rally Racer (from KB Toys) (same car) for around $10, you won't be disappointed!

Tried another Target in my area and they had them for $10.00 so I picked up......

Go to you nearest KB Toys and get the "Micro RC Rally Racer" it's a Shen! Trust Me.

thx i bought one 2day. damn man 15 BUX A PIECE MAN FOR A CLONE!! i couldnt have bought a microsizer fer 10 but i decided to try these out. overall i think THEY ARE GOOD AS THEY LOOK. good clone probably as good as a microsizer. except mine kind of has a flaw. it cant turn left as good as it can turn right. i have easy donuts with right. but big wide circles with left. i mean like 4x4 feet big. the speed and torque is AMAZING tho. almost as fast as my dks 3.4 preciouse. i think preciouse and shens are the same tho. anyone else agree???

For total performance out the box:

I rate the Shen #1, Precious 2nd, Panther 3rd, etc......


For fit & finish:

Lxx #1 (without a doubt), Precious 2nd, the rest are about the same to me.


This just my opinion! Your opinions may vary......

Both Shens are Precious are sweet. I like the Shen bodies better, but prefer the wider steering of the Precious.

i picked up some bullet clone at burlington coat factory last week. it is the most generic packaging ive ever seen but man is the car sweet. it steers better than a bit and the motor that came with it makes my dual cell bit roll over 5 or 6 times.

The lxx cars look nice! How compatible are they with bits/microsizers? Is the chassis/PCB any good, or do they just look really good?

you live in tracy, ca? i live in manteca the target here has sports for 10 bucks

billy, i think LXX are near replicas of bits... almost everything will work, but im not sure about the FEW things that dont..

if ur looking for an LXX, i say go for the boosters.. the only thing that i ever really hear complaints about is the steering..

Thanks Pie, DarkTari!
 
This wouldn't be so hard if a bit booster didn't cost 4X an lxx booster! :eek:

nrmcj 05-04-2003 06:13 PM

hehe, oops... darktari im sloooowww... =P

i dunno.. LXX for 20 canadian is one kick-ass deal... even cheaper than shens! and basically i was buying for the body.... which is 15 bucks from any LHS, so... 5 dollar booster chassis! cant lose ^__^

but STILL... go for the TOMY boosters... according to those reviews, LXX is unreliable when it comes to consistancy... some people get good ones, some people get poor ones.. =\
