i'll do some more work and report the times later on today. i am going to put the drag motor and the soft tires and we'll see how far they drop. i didn't think under 6 secs for stock was that bad...

I'll tip my hat

I didn't want to do this becaue it would bring out the liars...but the Mini-Zs will make the 50ft run in under 4.4 sec stock and anywhere from 2.7-3.1 with the x-speed......I was hoping to get somebody with a NML or X-speed motor to post for comparison's sake.

$$$

some people don't have loads of cash to drop, plus the mini z i want is the f1 ferrari and it probably won't make it too long outside so my xmod rocks my racing addicted life in the off season.
