well Payaso. gracias senor. I bought a new kind of bit today with some extra money I made tutoring dream weaver. I have never seen them before. There called "Motor Works" by a company called "planet Toys"

Anyone heard of these. I haven't even put batteries in it yet and already ripped off the body to look under the hood. The motor and Battery is moddable. it also comes with 3 sets of tires and an extra set of rims. it also has moddable fins and grills as well. I figured for $20 I'd try again. I'll up some pictures later and the results of speed etc.

LOL.... bout time G.. Now lets get that shizzle contest worthy so you can be sportin a new WRX across the family room floor.

Have you had a chance to test it out yet? What about a pick. I've never seen a clone that came with extra rims and tires. Sounds like a deal.

Those wheels,and tires look cool.. In the pic in the box, is that a body kit on the front of the car? It looks like a RX-7.

dunno what it is! It is a body kit on the front. Stock it comes with no fin or bumber intact. I just put it on casue it looked bad ass. The tires ar Big Slicks. Sm Slicks. Back reg size dirt and sm front dirt. Also includes a red LED in the Windshield. Probably will be painting it tonight. they had a phat truck but NAH.

Seems PLLanet Toys is out of Sarasota FL. Maybe you could look em up. I cannot find them on the web

that's MotorWorks second version.

The first version was in an oval dome.
many more differences with the first version and Bits/MS.
The second has cleaned up a lot. (same MHz) Extra parts.

Looks like it runs great.. What type of truck was the other you didn't buy?

Thats awesome dude. They look alot like MS that I've seen around. Does anyone have a good educated guess as to what body it's supposed to be?

It wasn't a truck now that I confirmed with the wife. it was a muscle car. Had 2 different engine blocks sticking outa the hood. also had the same tire/rim kit. I have plans for this for the contest though. Don't know if I'll finish it in time but I'll try

I'd say it's an RX-7.

walmart got a buncha new models in last week. the only one i remember is a pink viper. it looked pretty good.

my take on motorworks: lots of neat accessories. the fastest car ive seen stock. charger is cool. drivetrain is smooth.

what i didnt like: the steering. the one i got looked really cheezy. its only about 75% compatable with bits.

all in all its not the worst clone out there.
