These things are really neat! They are pretty speedy and handle great on carpet. i tested them at the chicago hobby show. they had lrp quantum reverse esc. They handled good because of there 4wd. I would reccomend one over the mini Z. I tried those too but they werent as fast and didnt handle as well.

Nice. How many cells did the car have?

They ran on four AA batteries. The guys at HPI said they ran for about an hour! Pretty cool!

I've had my Micro for about two weeks now. I'm running about an hour on a set of four 1500mAH NiMH AA's, using the stock motor and Futaba MC230 ESC.

I just bought one last friday. Originally ran it with 4 AA batteries. Then I heard about the aftermarket 5 cell pack so I built my own using 2000mah reciever pack cells. Wow what a difference...with the 4 AA's it was just a bit faster then the Mini Z's...now it's ALOT faster!
