Is the turbo button that good?

[Brynn]

I've been using my Bit Char-G that I recently bought, and I had to go out to my local Toys R Us and by a Microsizer motor for it since I can't buy things online. The Microsizers I've seen have a "turbo" button that gives the car 2 speeds. Is it really that great? Does it make a big difference? Or should I just stick with my Bit Char-G controller and car?

Without using the turbo they are slower but with it they are faster.

I don't like 'em. Cramps my hand holding that button down all the time. I reversed the function of mine, and now I never press it.

So does the turbo just equal the one speed of the Bit Char-Gs? Or is the turbo a faster speed than the only speed of the Bit Char-G? Assuming that both the Microsizer and Bit Char-G have the same specs.

The turbo button is "normal speed" and the forward button is "half speed"... its lame...

I like it. Better control over the car with the button feature. Its always good if people don't know your car is two speed, so you can suprise them with a sudden boost.

Actually it is annoying to hold but if you want faster speed it is the way to go! It is slightly faster than a stock one when boost is turned on.

It's not faster than a one-speed, or if it is, it's a very miniscule amount. I find the half-speed thing more annoying than useful. For me it's just too difficult to use my left hand for F/R and a finger on my right hand to toggle modes. I prefer having the go button put out 100% and control my speed by pulsing the button manually.
