well without drifting tires, close to 40-45mph. with drifting so far the fastest drift ive had was around 30mph i suppose.
-Cossie do you think the chassis will add enough weight?

RE: My TC3 With Brushless :)
just a question...why would you want to ADD weight to your car. i would think that you would want to lighten and also balance the car than to make it heavier. what you mean by this snowball "if triming the wires doesnt work." i hope you dont mean your tx antenna wire lol...(oh nevermind i got it, i think your talkin about your esc to motor wires right). but yea when drifting and especially with a bl system, the only parts your gonna be wearing is your abs/pvc tires and battery... these kits already have bearings and the plastic outdrives can more than handle the stress(if there is any cause plastic tires have literally no tractions what so ever)

Yes trimming my ESC and Motor wires.
The reason i want to add weight is because it is way too light., i lose traction with my normal tires as if i were drifting. What im trying to do is just add weight so i can have reasonable traction with my normal tires when im racing my friends Nitro.
As for drifting there is so much power in that motor it wont cause any problems for my drifting.
i dont think i worded it right so i hope you get the idea.

oh yea i got....well if its like that maybe get some led(sp) fishing weights or the weights used to balance tires then get a torch to custom make your own weights. led melts at a low temp and can be molded into anything so you can make them to fit into your custom setup. allthough getting some foams would be my ideal choice for traction but they do cost a bunch and i know how fast they wear out. also try to soften your suspension as that will increase traction to

hey if you are still having frequency problems, try wrapping your reciever with tin foil, apperently it block interference or does something to help, give it a shot
