Review: Nascar motorworks

Post by sessiz »

I broke down and bought me one at wallmarts today.
I'm really liking this car so far. It seems to be a perfect 1/64 scale and the chassis is near flat. It comes stock with a purple motor that resembles the zip zaps nx motor.
Ahh5hit did a review of these over at tiny's place, have a look... :-)

Thanks for the heads up, that looks way nicer than the 2F2F cars. Hopefully the Walmart in my hood has 'em. I can't stop spending money on these little bastards... I wonder what kind of financing is available for little cars?

We're gonna need it soon what with the muscle machines R/Cs and the zips 2.0s coming with camaros and wranglers and '05 stangs.

I'll probably just start stealing stuff, just like a regular junkie. See y'all in hell.

I picked one up today at walmart. $17.+ beans.

Note, the steering adjustment is backwards compaired to other bits.
and the 3 screws to take the body off. (swearword)

Image

In the bottom right corner of the box is a button.
When pushed, pops open the "slide out" charger.

Image
Image

Note the two connector pointers on the bottom of the slide out charger.
It (the charger, containing the two AA batteries) when slide back in the box. IS the power source for the Transmitter.

Image

Image

The connecter to keep the car connected to the charger is cumbersome to work the car on.

The Motor is the exact same as the Radio Shacks NOS/NX Motor.
(speed/performance/size)

That's freakin' cool. I want one.

My Walmart never even stocked the 2F2F cars, and they still don't have the old hot rod body, but the shelf is full of red sports cars, and purple pickups.
...crazy man, crazy...dig it.

I did not pick this one up at my local Walmart...I was a bit of a distance from home.
But C-Dave, if you REALLY want one...PM me.
