this is currently the shell sitting on my ride. i bought a couple of cheap sets of abs tires for drifting. the car is a tc4 and powered by a mamba 7700 with a hitec digital 5925 servo and jrs radio.
the car is not a full time drifter (obvious by the motor selection)
I hope to track down some new visual mods and the final show body will be a Supra.

Status: online 		thanks for compliments on the elise. I do like the body, came out better than what I expected, just messing around with an airbrush. I also like how the onroad bodies look so realistic. I have a Saleen Mustang and a Chevy Silverado waiting to be painted.

I havn't been drifting for a while but i'll get back into it. I wish I knew someone around here that also does it. Right now it's just me in front of my house. It's fun though.

Are those the new rims where you can adjust offset? I LOVE the offset look. It's too nice to be driven. hehe.

Looks better in real life because you cant see all the tiny scratches and dust, looks worse because you can see the paint bleeds/leaks.

Status: offline 		Ok, i dont really understand the HPI extender thing. Does it allow you to move to body posts forward, or backward so it will mount better? What i was talking about was how alot of you guys never timmed your body posts.
