Zip Zaps never came with a 1.0, that's Bit char-Gs. Zip Zaps used to come with a 1.6, now they have a torquey 2.15. The clone motor does get a slight nod in top speed.Motor clone - 2.6 or 300 MPH (scale) ZZ - 1.0 or 150 MPH (scale)
I don't know about Panthers, but most clones have hard tires, the Zip Zaps are actually some of the softest I've seen, and are not slick, but they are too narrow, which kills the looks.Tires clone - Rubber Soft Racing Tires ZZ - Plastic Hard, Slick Factory Tires
They both charge for 45 sec, but I wish the ZZ charged for 2min. then we really could get 20 min. runtimes.Charge Time clone - 45 seconds ZZ - up to 2 minutes
Amazing how 2 cars with 100mah batteries, can have such drastically different runtimes, especially when the one that supposed to have charged more than twice as long, has 1/4 of the run time. It's just not adding up.Run Time clone - up to 20 minutes ZZ - up to 5 minutes
ok, so the clones do have better range, but 75ft.? BS.Range clone - Up to 75 feet ZZ- 10-15 feet
Zip zaps have always been $19.99. The clones are a better deal, but you get what you pay for.Compatibility clone - Almost w/ any car parts/engine ZZ - Non-compatible/quote]Zip Zaps are 'almost' compatible too, they just have longer chassis, and cooler rims.
Price clone - HOT !!! ZZ - $24.95
the first clone i ever bought. a "thor" racer. the only one i ever got with a non hard wired motor (my first pink clone motor) had over 75 feet. i kid you not. the car was a pos other than the motor and range but it had range.crazydave wrote:ok, so the clones do have better range, but 75ft.?
