Default New car, Thinking of going with Mini-Z

I have 2 xmods, and am fairly happy with them, but I think my next car will probably be a Mini-Z. I've been somewhat disappointed with my
expense/outcome ratio with the xmod chassis, both gen. 1 and evo. Maybe my expectations are high, I don't know.
Anybody own both and have any comments on either platform??? I'm especially curious as too whether a mini-z would be better for racing around an apartment.
Right now i'm looking at getting eith a MR-02MM chassis or a MA-010 AWD chassis. I think either one would be a formitable hobby car, any comments or feedback??

well i had 3 mini z, one overland, one mini z monster and one mini z mr01 and i loved all 3 yet some how i broke all beyond repair because i was stupid then and didnt take care of them (this was 3 years ago) and i regret it because all 3 are so much freaking fun. since i have replaced the overland and monster with some xmod trucks but when i do get another mini z it will be a monster truck or i may try the f1

Well for what you want, get the MA-010. If your going to be racing with other people, get the MR-02. The MA-010 is best for drifting right out of the box, partly because, it is AWD.

MR02 adv: low maintainence, more durable, low CG, lower cost to upgrade.
MA010 adv: lots of traction, symmetrical differential output, drifting made easy.

I'd take the MR02 anyday, but sometimes the urge to focus and drift RWD just isn't there, lol...
