trust me , get the Sprint 2 Drift. Why? because an RTR Micro Rs4 comes with a D-Box which i know you won't need and if you check the price of it. Its atleast $80+. 1/10 Size is much better , fun to play with. Thats my opinion but hey where can you get the Sprint 2 Drift? i thought they ran out at towerhobby and other online websites. So can you post an link to buy it?

yea you're right but i read in RC Car Action the D-Box helps maintain drift in the car and if you don't have it in there the car might have trouble.....funny all of that stuck in my head i figured that after 1 month reading that i'd forget....funny

yea "rc freak" hmm the D-Box do maintain your drifting but my friend has a 1/18 Micro Rs4 RTR , the one that hes trying to figure out what to buy. Trust me its not hard drifting with an 1/18 size rc , took me 2 or a little bit more to drift without the D-Box. 1/10 Size took sometime because thats what i have and i use ABS tires. Its worth it though, 1/10 size is a good size for drifting. My opinion

Default RE: got a question about these two cars

sprint 2 is a better drift platform due to the fact that it is a 10th scale car, the micro is an 18th scale car, so unless you enjoy drifting by yourself, 10th scale is the way to go
essentially, the micro is a scaled down version of the sprint 2 equipped with the dbox
I have both cars, I play with the sprint 2 more, why?
Its more fun, more tuning options, and its easier for me to find others to drift with using a 10th scale car

or you can get both

the micro would be good if you want to run in a small space in your house or something for those rainy or snowy days
but the sprint 2 is the best bang for your buck deal out there on the market right now...you get everything you need all in 1 package...and when you want to upgrade that is really easy with the sprint 2 drift
