Aurora, AMC, 112th... so we got 3 people , plus me and TC4_drifter are 5 already. I plan to make a drift meet on next week since prodigy will come down to Westminster next week. If u guys have any friend that interested in drifting bring them with you. I have tool to make track, but it would be cool if u guys bring anything that u have to make track.

i want to see how the belt chassis compare to shaft one. Let's meet up someday and show me what u got dog. my friend painted that body but he forgot about the window. I plan to cut out the window to cool the esc and motor.

About the esc and motor, and since u into nitro more than eletric i would recommand not spend too much on electric stuffs. I recommend Komodo dragon 19T ( spec or modified both good) and some Novak esc ( like this one http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXGNG5&P=ML) . That motor won't let u down . I currently own komodo dragon too.

i say we meet and switch cars for like 10 mins. im intrested in shaft driven aswell. i here u have to "torqe turn" those?
heres a pic of my "body" its a traxxas jato body and i needed a body so i put some new holes in it and it worked so hey it works till i get my chargr body tomarrow.
ill look into a new motor. nitro is a little bit more fun for me. but electric is easier for me.

that's so classic[8D]. Im not really understand "torque turn" those. In fact, with some normal motor u dun have enough power and torque to make a L or semi circle turn when u go high speed. Try to ask around for most used motor, for me Komodo dragon work great.
