its really not THAT difficult to get setup right if your notl ookin to compete. PVC will do fine for most the average "i want to drift my RC" guys. a mid turn motor (15-18) wouldbe good, but i always ran the higher turn monster motors. i always wanted a yokomo, but never got one. i used a tl-01 tamiya around the house, red springs out back and yellow up front, and PVC tires for outside, electrical taped rubber for inside pissin off the cats.

I have never been into rc's I just saw this video and thought it was pretty friggin cool so I posted it. I dig the detail they put into their cars. I think the coolest rc I ever had was when I was 12 and it had two sets of tank tracks I cant remember the name of it. Man I thought that thing was fast till I put it though a puddle. Puddle + electronics FTL !!

Stupid. Just like drifting real cars is.

It's also in the wrong **** section.

Lookit the movie credits all of those r/cs are extremely high end cars.. yer lookin at $300+ for just the kit with no motor or electronics to control it... I'm sure you can buy a ready to run car for $400 and dial it in todo the same tricks..

definately 4 wheel drive..

my modded XMod can drift very easily...

x2 nice tho i think i should start looking for my xmod //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

There's a guy locally running one of the mugen pro specs. But there is no part support anywhere around here for miles for them . People mostly run either kyosho, or ofna //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
