zipzaps: legit competitors?

It seems that ZZs have an advantage race-wise over the bit char-g and microsizer fleet. I think that if the zipzaps are a different size and scale, they should have their own division to race against eachother, not mixed with a different scale. You wouldn't race 1/8 and 1/10 in the same class either...just dont make sense.

I'm not scared of anybody with a zz or a bit for that matter, cause it's not the car it's the driver, and I'm bad to the bone.....
I love to blow my own horn....(beep beep)

I would have to agree, they should at least be forced into "clone" races, not allowed to compete with real Bit Char-Gs/MicroSizers. This is the way the Bit Dra-G guidelines are set up also.

yeah. but some people race ferraris againg Mitsubisi eclipses. I think that Zip Zaps are just another competing company. Its like comparing a stock civic to a lancer OZ rally. you can't go to the races and ask for a slower car to race or complain the other car is too fast

Well, you wouldn't race Bit Char-Gs against Digi Qs, or Micro RS4s against Mini-Zs; likewise I don't think ZZs and BC-Gs should be mixed.
