i really want one. at my school right now there are a ton of us that drive mini z's and micro rs4s in the halls before we are told to put them away. these cars would be ideal because they are smaller than the mice that run the halls. lol we really don't drive them in the halls but we do drive them in the back cornber of the cafeteria with dooks for track markers.

This car doesn't look "sweet" it just looks like another toy I'm gonna step on and break at night. The only reason you would need this is if you live in a dumpster and have that much room to run it in. But look on the bright side...... it goes so slow it'll be impossible to flip (unless you run over a grain of sand of course)
:rolleyes:

Hey Usagi
I'm interested in Mini cars now, but not sure whether I should wait for this Yokomo car, or a Mini Z.
Does that Yokomo Mini have proportional steering?
