Got confused with the other thread r.c.dealer posted. Very cool pics in it.

That controller looks SWEEET! How's the range on it? I love the stand alone chargers. Saves my controllers battery life.

Someone has to hook me up with one. I don't have a Target here and I doubt they'll be around when I get to one before Christmas. From the steering, battery compartment, and price, you can't lose. Body looks great as well.

I'll gladly swap a brand new unopened MotorWorks for an unopened one of these. I have the limited edition clear body BMW looking body one still in its case. Any takers?

The controller range is about the same range as my stock 27mhz ZZ & MicroSizers- not bad but not great.

The car and controller both have a somewhat cheap, toylike feel to them. Again, not real bad, but not the quality of the ZZ or Ms. They still are very much worth the $10 investment though- and I think that they definately have possibilities in the hands of an enthusiastic customizer...

If Walmart has some more, I'll pick one up for you. You'll have to pre-pay for it with PayPal though. And I haven't got a clue of how much shipping would be. Let me know and the next time I'm there, I'll get some....if they have any left. I'm hoping they get a stock of them every week.

The joysticks look comfortable. I still can't get over that it's only $10. Two motors and all!!! Absolutely amazing!

While I am new to the micro R/C world and haven't seen all of the various brands yet, I haven't seen a car similair in construction to the Micro Blast Racer- It can't be considered a "clone" IMO.

Stride- If your interested I am willing to trade my Micro-Blast straight up for an unpackaged, like-condition Bit/MS clone. I just have no interest in it, even though it has some neat features.

My Micro Blast has been charged/run only 5 times, and I have (carefully) only opened it only twice (the second time to take some pics of it for you).

Email me if interested- I can send it out UPS Wednesday to you- if you like it when you get it, just ship me your trade...

Deal, but let's wait til' after Christmas. I'm going to be out of town for a week or so. I don't want it to arrive and just sit by the door. I'll send mine out at the same time. Plus, they won't risk being lost in the holiday mail rush. I really appreciate it.

bit cycles use that set-up.
