Once he said that I lost my concentration and promptly crashed.
Man, go and take a look on ebay for some used Mini-zs that are in really good condition. I got an F1 in impecable condition, plus an xspeed motor, bearings, internal antenna, and an extra set of rims, and 2 extra sets of tires all for $85 plus $5 S+H. Now you cant beat that with a stick!

That's the spirit! I'm surprised to see how many XMODers have moved over to Zs, that's a very interesting trend. It's great to see everyone over at mini-zracer.com though!

i am still here

Shiporu here...i know i have not posted for the longest...I had work and guests to tend to...but I did notice the drop of interest in our forums. As for me, I have run out ideas...but I have not lost my interest. i still race outside of my house. The only reason I am getting a mini-z, is because of the "Intial -d" tofu car.

Aperson, you have me alot. Thank you

I think the main reason may be the lack of new products, etc. for the Xmods. I myself have recently had my interest in the Zip Zaps renewed with all the new cars and parts.

It seems that RS still has their focus on the Zips as they have released lots of new stuff for them since the release of the Xmods.

Loss of Internest in Xmod = 1/8 Nitro Buggy

I bought a 1/8 Nitro Buggy that is keeping me away from my xmod. And maybe one of the best things about xmods are that they are a good introduction to RC in general and will lead people to other RC products.

I called RS about Skyline & Supra bodies and they don't expect to have them until JULY .. WTF IS THAT? Talk about no support!! They still advertise on Super Street and they even sponsor major Import Events YET they can't refresh their line of bodies. THAT is why people are losing interest!
