Status: offline 		Ok. Wow.

Nobody is condoning WAISTING money on a quality product. If all you can afford or care to buy is a drift king, then so be it. However, if/when that breaks, you'll have to buy another one to keep r/c drifting. So, it's more of shelling out more cash up front to get more long term pleasure. And as far as drifting goes, it's a fun sport. If you plan on continuing with it, then you're going to spend money doing it, regardless. Unless you're just a bandwagon type of fellow and just doing something because you think it's cool. I'm not saying that you are, but it really is worth getting a real car. Just less hastle.

Koolkattz, welcome to rc universe. You'll find that it's a bit more active than SG (i'M on there too) but it's more drama, as you can see. But, it's a pretty informative site for the n00bs...ACTUALLY it's pretty informative period. I've learned quite a bit from it.

That's my $.02. Actually, it probably all adds up to about $1.37 after taxes and inflation. But who's counting.

Status: offline 		Not to brag or anything, But i got my TC3 RTR for less then the Drift king, And see em daily for just over. I'd rather have something that's fully adjustable, Upgradable, With TONS of aftermarket part's and support.

Okay, So i am bragging.

you say the tyco cars are small? kbtoys says its 17.5 inches long. and PLEASE dont drift the mini t, buy a touring car. besides mini t is rear wheel drive, which would make it virtually impossible to drift.

Status: offline 		its nice to see so many people bash a drift king without owning one themselves. good to see so many "pros" here, ready to offer their valuble information. but honestly, if you dont know about the product, you shouldnt be talking trash about it.
