I got to drive one! also a question

Strider · #1 11-09-2003, 07:07 PM

I went to RS today and got a new ZipZap SE because one of the tailights was out and they had an XMod red Supra. As I was talking to the guy and helping him with everything he needed for the exchange he showed me the XMod, after that I paid no attention to him and drove it for about 5-10 minutes.

Also I think the batteries were very run down but hows the reverse on these things, pretty fast in comparison to forward?

forward should be much faster than reverse.

Yea the batteries run down pretty fast. So thats why I bought the rechargable batteries.

I guess the batteries were low because it had a reverse speed of about 1 inch per 3 second.(hope thats not normal)

so, what were your thoughts did you like it?

Strider · #8 11-09-2003, 09:13 PM

For the short amount of time I drove it I thought it was awesome.But it would be even better if the batteries were fully charged and had all the upgrades on a slick surface, no carpet.

Even though the batteries were very low it was surprisingly fast.

Can someone give me ideas on how to get $50 cause my parents say I can buy one if I want before Christmas but I dont have the money.

4G63T · #11 11-09-2003, 09:20 PM

just take an loan from them and tell them you will pay them soon
really though i have no idea

If it were any other time in the year that would be fine but right before they do Christmas shopping that wont happen because they might buy one for me anyway for Christmas but its two months away.

I was thinking about ebay.

Murcielago659 · #13 11-09-2003, 10:24 PM

Just let them buy you one. Then use the money you get from your grandparents for mods.

Strider · #14 11-09-2003, 10:31 PM

Its two months though...

Murcielago659 · #15 11-09-2003, 11:06 PM

Just think how much better it will be knowing you waited patiently all this time!
