hey, anybody here work at radioshack? if you can, please get an up-close pic

suicide_star 07-05-2008 10:20 PM

the guy that got the newsletter said it says zipzaps

taiwanesekid05 07-05-2008 11:58 PM

Yup suicide star... Hopefully Xmods don't get down graded to little 1:64 pipsqueaks.

Then again, let's hope some of the Zip Zaps innovations get trasferred over... Somehow...

Like?? what features do ZZ's have that xmods dont yet?

Who would be ****ed if a new line doesnt come out now??

XMDrifter 07-06-2008 09:37 AM

who would like to collectively trash radioshack in the news for coming out with crappy zip-zaps as xmods?

xmodkidd33 07-06-2008 12:38 PM

Guys, they're probably coming out with new Xmods, and ZipZaps. :roll:

:lol: That makes sense to you?

"Welcome to the Zip Zaps, brought to you by the Xmods brand"

:roll:

taiwanesekid05 07-06-2008 03:10 PM

This is confusing.

ZipZaps made by Xmods?

Xmods made by ZipZaps?

XMDrifter 07-06-2008 05:58 PM

darn, i gotta talk to my local RS people

stang_racer 07-07-2008 02:14 AM

ok i dont know about you guys but i think if the cars that have fwd in real life were to be sold with only fwd and the trucks came with awd and the cars that have rwd in real life like say a mustang or Z06 or a supra have rwd. anyone understand what i mean???

Yes, but, $$$ wise, not viable I guess, having to run seperate lines for the different drivetrains (and that they would have to provide more individual kits to convert the cars back to another drivetrain, EX: RWD to FWD, or FWD to AWD) Just easier to sell them all RWD, and provide the parts for the other two.

And, I can't think of another manufacture that does do that with R/C cars.

Plus modding = more fun.. :nod:

This is stupid their toys these are not meant to be exact replicas down to VIN numbers and such...their still toys and the 10 Year old that its designed to provide pleasure too isnt going to complain about it not being FWD when the real car is...

Moreover if you want that kind of scale accuracy maybe the cars should have interiors??

XMDrifter 07-07-2008 05:09 PM

i'd just be fine with them as hardcore racing machines

WhiteMKIV 07-07-2008 05:39 PM

It would be cool if the put the motors in the front this time

texan_idiot25 07-07-2008 05:58 PM

Name me another major RC line that has the motor up front.

Front heavy cars do not handle well... Gotta have room for steering, and AWD.
