you going to make tires out of PVC pipe? That thing is not going to go anywhere, it is just going to sit in one spot spinning the tires.

Nice video Derek, too bad its not a himoto though, would have been a much better video since our 1/10 onroads come with an infinity/sh.18 and a pivot ball suspension standard

check out the taipan

actually the extra power will spin the wheels faster and make it drift easier once you learn how to control it. You also need to lock it into first gear or make it a single speed.
