Hi.

I just wondered if you know of any places in N America where I can buy
a Mini Z car? I would preferably like an RTR one, but can go for a
kit and build it myself.

I am just looking for something small and electric powered to mess
around with indoors, and sometimes out as well. I would like a
regular road car as the body, or perhaps a performance car like a
Lambo or Ferrari (one of the newer models).

I have looked at places in the UK, but the prices are too higher, so I
am willing to import from the States or Canada.

Thanks for any links

John

Well, I just typed up a big post and messed up...so Ill be breif. Im
huge into micros so I know way too much. Finding the Zs for cheap is
hard. For a reasonable price you could find a used one on some of the
micro sites. My preferance (because Im an admin there) is
http://www.ripper7racing.com/ Check the forums for info on other cars.

For indoors stuff you might be interested in something along the lines
of an Epoch Indoor Racer or a Mini-X. The epoch is tiny, its 1/43
scale but still fairly fast. The Mini-X is a little bigger but still
1/24 scale, 4WD, tiny little diffs and dogbones and FLYS like you
wouldnt beleive. Do the PVC trick (or duct tape in the smaller scales)
and you have the most fun little drift car you can imagine.
