Actually, there's a "tight turn mod" available from AtomicMods.com, as well as a two-cell Lithium-Ion pacakge, hop-up motors, speedo upgrades, carbon driveshafts and a whole bunch of other stuff. With bearings,the tight turn mod, and a two-cell lithium upgrade an X-Mod, will DECIMATE most Mini-Z's, and at that point you're right about the same price point as a Mini-Z with an X-speed motor.
