There are many people out there who like to put up reviews of the SuperSlicks and all, but I thought I'd create a thread where we put em all together.
Let me start: Today I bought the blue skyline (49 mhz) and, to be honest...it's great! Well, for it's size and all. It may not be propo steering, but who cares! (probably oldtamiyaphile, knowing the propo freak he is
) It turns just right, not too tight like a ZipZap if you put in the yellow motor and red gears, and not wide like the cars made by "Awesome RC" or whatever. Speed is fine, torque is awesome. Whenever I hit reverse, it will immediatley stop and go backwards.
I can't drift too good with it, I can only do 180's and spin outs. I even put a thin layer of baby powder on the floor, no drifting, though the continuous spin outs were kind of....um.....nice.
Also, with the kit, I bought the body kit (from 2 Fast 2 Furious) and snapped on the 2F2F skyline. It was NICE, a perfect replica.
The runtime is GREAT.....10 minutes before it began crapping out....maybe it's cuz the batteries have been sitting there for a while.
Range is cool, I could go 15 feet and no problems experienced.
Torque is awesome as well....it will drive on carpet like no BCG/ZZ will ever go, unless you use mosfets of course.
The nifty ramp is nice, but no chance of flying off it unless the car is freshly, properly charged OR upgraded with the motors.
Price is a pretty good deal, 20.00 for a car that is WAY better than the ZipZaps.....and stock too! Of course it uses more batteries so what do you expect.
Overall, it's a great deal, you get all that mentioned above for the same price as a ZZ. Of course, I'm not going to open up the insides, my dad has known me to break 7 mini rc cars doing that, and 1 Xmod with the same thing. I will stick with upgrading the motors, and I already have the coolest bodies. I need no more.
