Default X-Mods?

Anyone here ever mess with an X-mod.I picked one up to see how they are. I think they are nice for the cost and they also have alot of hop ups. The only problem is the turning is really bad on them. I would recommend them to race around on a rainy day they are pretty fast.....and cheap.

There are lots of threads for xmods in the mini/micro car forum, you may get more feedback there. I have both a 1gen x-mod, and an x-mod evolution, and yes I think that they are very nice to have.

Right. Post on the mini/micro forum and enjoy the responses you are likely to get! IMO, they do look cool, though.

i got 1 with every hop up-you will occasionally get an electronics problem(exull the trigger and the lights dim instead of moving)

they can go REALLY fast if you do it right

Man it's been raining here for days. I'm so bored that I'm drag racing my Mini LST against my brother's xmods. I'm having lots of fun running over them [>:]

I'm sure the gearing would need to be changed.
