surprisingly it sounds the same as always. Just louder as it drives away since its pointing back at you and not to the side. The exhaust can also added some torque which helps in drifting and short course racing. And if i take the baffle out of the can and retune i can get higher top speed.

Just picked up the HPI Sprint 2 Drift, once I get paid on Friday I'm going to pick up a new body. Preferably a Subaru or Evo.

After selling some stuff, actually a bunch of stuff and clicking on the buy now button, my Yok DRB showed up today, got it in just 3 days straight from Tokyo thanks to Tim at RC-race-and-drift.

EMS shipping kicks butt!




Only thing in English is this front page of the manual...



This chassis comes with everything you need...well just about...I bought a 1.8 CS rear spool and a 2 deg toe bar to loosen up the rear bite a little.



Well here we go!...carbon fiber is top quality...installed front and rear bulkheads.



assembled the one way and started the buildup...




This belt routing gives the chassis a mechanical brake drag...







This is about 45 minutes into the build...calling it a night...should be getting my Motor and ESC tomorrow or Wednesday.

my sprint2 with a tamiya z4 shell, rubber coated for durability when noob drifting, blacklight headlights, police lightbar for lol chases, textured faux carbon fiber body wrap. It's a very nice compact body, one of my favorites

I got the lights from ebay, also picked up a 3rd channel electronic switch to remotely turn the light bar on and off

The body wrap - also from ebay - they sell a lot of the cheap textured vinyl sheets, different patterns from twill weave to circles and squares, different colored vinyls too.

the matte look on the body has the texture of rubber - it's actually Plastidip, bought a spray can of it at Lowe's. and i'm really glad i picked it up cus now i can spray whenever i feel like running with the matte look on any of my bodies, or peel it off and show the undercoat. Plastidip comes in several colors
