hey, someone posted up somethin about their xmod in another forum a few hours ago. I thought it looked awesome, and after diggin thru the r/c forums here, i found out two things:
1. xmods suck
2. there are alot of other r/c cars for the same $$ that are better
So. I was lookin on ebay, i saw a few new micro RS4 electric car's by HPI. What do you guys know about those? They're i think 1/18, and it seems like a good company.

Xmods go about 10 mph. Micro RS4's hit about 30 with a few mods. I posted a video on here about a brushless motor that a guy put in his Micro RS4 and it hits 80MPH.

Micro RS4s are neat. my brother sold his on ebay a few months ago. My only complaint was assembling the u joints. They are so small and plastic i was afraid of breaking them. But they went to gether fine eventually

Micro RS4s are great.. i have a BMW M3 GTR RTR version and i love it very much... they are definately faster than an xmod stock.. i only like XMODS for looks and fun driving but RS4s with a few mods go fn fast :biggrin:
