Just ordered Taiyo Radi-Book

I just bought a Taiyo Radi-Book Calsonic Skyline from irc....kind of impulsive. What can I expect in terms of quaslity, speed, control, and available upgrades/support. Thanks

The car is very strong so you would have a hard time breaking it. Thr tune up kits are on sale also from $19 to $10. one kit has a hop up motor and bearings for the rear axel and the other kit has stiffer springs and a set of slick and treaded tires. this is a fun car even at night with the lights on!

Is it quick? Also, how realistic or detailed is the body? How does it compare to a mini-z (in terms of size, speed, quality, etc....)

Thanks

the car goes good but even better with tho hop up motor.I run 1800 mah batteries in mine. The car is great out on the pavment as 1/22 scale is a good size for indoor and outdoor use. the top speed is better than the z the body detail is just as good and you can run it outdoors. It is larger than the z but smaller than the micro rs4

Can you add the hop-up motor to my purchase, or do I have to order again and pay additional shipping?

OK, just sent $10.75 viapaypal for the engine tune-up thing. Also, the confirmed address that paypal uses is my address at home in IL, I go to school in Iowa, is there any way you can ship to me at school, or do you have to ship to my confirmed address (my school address is unconfirmed by paypal cause I dont get any bills there). If not, I understand. Thanks a lot
