rlc77, glad to see your enjoying your mini-z. The enzo is very impressive isn't? The handling is amazing.

Thanks jaubery.......yes this little car ROCKS. I don't know if you hang out at the Mini-Z Racer forum. If so you can see the Diablo I bought. It already has bearings, a hopped up motor and some other extras. I bough it from buckaroobonsai. It will be here Friday (3/5/04). In a very short time this has become an addiction for me.

Would any of you be interested in a kinda beatup mr01 mini z skyline. The body and rims are pretty scratched but the actual car works fine. It would come with a cf o plate, smoother king pins, minizracer ball diferential, foam tires front and rear, some of the suspension spring upgrade kit, and the rear mono shock that I could never get to fit.
The reason I want to get rid of it is because even with the most grippiest tires I could not get traction on my wood floors. It was to fast.I would sell it or trade it for an xmod. Anyone interested?

Well...... I actually haven't had a chance to time my mini-z...  Ya see...I'm a computer geek by heart, and by trade and I have several computers in the house. However.... I also repair allot of computers at home and my work table is by the track. I have recently been repairing allot of computers, so the computer I use for the timer is sitting in a corner. As I type this, my girlfriend is finishing up software installs on one so it's owner can pick it up tonight. As far as my addiction?.......Just call me a Junky. It's been years since I've ran RC cars and I'm wondering why I stayed away so long. I'm currently negotiating for my 3rd mini-z.... Wish me luck.

Yea, those are the Mini-Z Mad Force Monster Overlands. Im not into the whole Monster Truck RC thing but they are supposidly a ton of fun...i like the Overland more because an Overland can be whatever you want it to be (a rock cralwer or a racer or anythig inbetween) but a Monster Overland is just that...a monster Overland

I just saw that car yesterday! That thing is amazing! Everything but the kitchen sink! I bet that could kick a micro rs4's butt. I expect a complete review and comparison after you get to drive it.

WOO HOO!!!!!!! The Dream Machine has arrived.
I'm speechless!!!!!! This car is awesome. It has so much power that it takes a feather touch to tame this beast. There is going to be quite a learning curve keeping this thing under control. My RCP Track is too small to do this justice. I'm taking it to work tomorrow, where I have enough space to open it up. Wish I could find a radar gun.
For those of you who haven't seen it.

All I can say is WOW!!!!!!
jaubery.....I now have 3 Mini-z's and the 4th shipped today. Denise says I gotta stop there.........lol

You better stop at four! You might end up sleeping on the sofa if you get another one. I thought it would be way too fast for the track. I would like to know what time it takes to do 0 to 50 feet. My awd xmod with stage 2 drag did it just under 4 seconds. I never ran my mini-z outside so I don't know what time it could do.
