$2 Kit Racers!

as most of you know, the KIT RACERS have parts (tires, gears, batteries, and motors) that the Bit Char-g/Microsizers use. At Target, they lowered the price from $5 to $1.98!

just thought i'd share!

They are at $3.98 at Target here in Minnesota.

Still a great deal, I bought (3) more today for the orange 2.6 motors, motor clips, and batteries!

Even 5.98 sounds like a good deal, I'm going to goto target sometime over my christmas break. The nearest one is like an hour away so I'm not sure when I'll be making the trip.

Anyone notice what Walmart is charging for them? I noticed before Xmas that Toys'R'us had the track down from $45 to $15 too.

...

first of all im new to this mini rc. its awesome though. i bought one of the cheap $13 cars from wal mart and i actually painted it black (it was an ugly clear green with stickers before...) while i was there i did remember reading something about how you can use the kit racer parts for bit char-g cars. since i bought one on ebay already (blue wrx, 45mhz, 3.0 motor, and tires) im thinking of actually buying one of these KIT racers.

i was just wondering were the ones you bought the ones that come with cars? cause the ones ive seen at wal mart are 10 bucks.

*edit*
oh also, do you guys know what comes in these kits? i know about the white tires, and the 2.6 motor. what gears come in it? are there any suspension parts?

I bought 4 of the cars, for $1.98 apiece. I got the one tuned for high RPM, so I have 4 sets of super-soft orange slicks (best tires I own to date), 4 blue gearsets (which perform OK but need 2 batteries), 4 BLACK HEAT SINKS (which look awesome on my shen, which has a black PCB cover), and 4 brand new Tomy batteries.

So basically $8 later, I got 4X the parts I got when I first bought a KIT racer at Walmart for $10. So, I have a stock of 2.6s and gears and stuff, and I'm definately stylin. Anyone who doesn't have a target near them or doesn't have them for the low price let me know and I'll ship you a couple sets. There were like 500 cars left when I went today.
