Nope - it's RC Car Action magazine's Forum.

Not sure about a lot of work, but their site really sucks - each car, e.g. Mini-Zs, only gets one THREAD! Not even a sub-forum, but a single thread, like this one, to discuss every aspect of the car. Yuck!

That's exactly what I thought! It was WAY to unwieldly for me to have to read EVERY post and then figure out who said what about that when and if we were talking about the same thing!!!

These boards (yourmicro.com and minizracer.com, along with this site) are the best! KUDOS!

Thanks The Thunderer! If anyone is aware of any other RCs that lack good forums, email us and we'll see if we can set one up!

I think it is intended to be a Mini-Z killer, so it will be faster than a Mini-Z. Not sure about an ABC DTM SP though, as these are already Mini-Z killers!

it takes 4 cell 1.2v 270mAh The halfcell as they call them out here. The 8000 yen is only the kit. the Whole set will be around 14,000 yen or so.

By whole kit do you mean including electronics etc.? So 8000JPY is just the chassis?

The existing chassy is just a proto type materal ( molding proposes only, The way the sevo is fixed does look weak, but its going to be better in the final design. The cells are on sell now for the sonic car, strange, but from what i heard they car should have been released 2 months ago......... But then again the puchi maru was delayed 3 months before it hit the market. Yokomo is akway late..................
Yes 8000 is only a chassy, but (said back in may)yokomo is know saying they will not sell just the chassy for now, but the complete set.

Don't know if anyone can verify this or not, but I read
elsewhere on the net that the 8/02 edition of rc extreme
shows the new yokomo. mini-z bodies fit.
$150 for the car, all electronics, ni-mh batteries, charger, and an FM radio. It's called the M-1 and slated for late summer.
that's an unbelievable estimated retail price if this is accurate info.
