General discussions, new info, and all stuff that's how you say, off the hook. Bit, ZZ, SE, MT, SS... as long as it's micro, it's here.

Yea, those are 4wd, with steering too, they are very wide, much wider than a SSMT 1/43 axle... guess they would be a good platform for a small scale comp crawler, though. :-o

Yeah I remember those. They were on the market before the ZZ MTs, but I was never interested because they have tank steering.

Yeah, I'm sure. That's why I passed them over when I saw them in Walmart back then.

Hmm, the pic I found over on scale4xrc, shows some steering knuckles... here's them next to a 1/24 model kit body... very, very wide... more for a 1/18 model or something...

Are we talking about the same cars? This is what I'm seeing in the link.

Notice how close the front wheels are to the chassis? I saw them in person, gotta be tank steering.


EDIT: Nope, we're not talking about the same cars.
they are very wide, much wider than a SSMT 1/43 axle...
These are 1/64th, much smaller than what you're talking about.

Ahhh, I see where I went wrong there.

I just glimpsed at the picture, and figured that was it...

When actually, that was it. The 1/32 not the 1/64.

My apologies CD. :-o

Tank steering would be cool, but not much good for crawling or modding
