I have a huge basament of about 200 square yd.
I do have a 1/10 V1R with a novarossi and it goes plenty fast.
During winter I am considering to find an electric for indoor use.
Do you think my area is enough for a 1/10 or shuold I prefer a MiniZ or
a micro rs4?

You have two football fields worth of basement?  Can you even see your 1/10
from the other side of it?

One football field is 5333 square yards (100 yards x 53.33 yards), not
counting the end zones.

His basement is 200 square yards. If it were square, it would be 14
yards on a side.

Actually a 200sq ft basement would be better for a mini-z or micro rs4

Ok i'm guess that's about 60 feet by 90 feet.  That's enough for a tight
1/10 track IF YOU USE IT ALL FOR TRACK.  Otherwise go with a Micro RS/4
because you can use some of the same electronics with your 1/10 and 1/8
vehicles.  Also when the Losi Mini-T comes out, you can add jumps and keep
the same course.

This is some kinda huge industrial building, right?

The indoor track we race off road trucks and buggies on is 100 feet by
55 feet, and it's plenty big for 1/10th scale.

I would not make mistake because I am from the metric Italy, but
100x55ft makes 611 sq yd. Three times what I have, isn't it?

100 feet x 55 feet is 611 square yards.

His basement is 200 square yards.

makes it waterproof (baloons and nylon cover) and get spikes and go to an
ice court and drive it like you stole it.
