Could just buy your own body, and paint it for an additional $25, and still have the original one to trash while driving for when it flips.

Also drift cars you don't want BL in from my understanding as it makes them almost impossible to control


Honestly if you like speed I'd just get a Touring car as a drift car won't quench that thirst.

If I was buying another on-road I'd personally get http://www.ofnawarehouse.com/product...964tdm2j6e0dl5 and bu a brushless setup.
See the issue is im in the uk, not many places to go for speed, and i love drift more than speed

Also the skyline r34 gtr body is a must,

I been looking around and the cheapest i can find in uk including shipping is £199, cheapest in us is like £220 with body i like, £200 without, and the shipping for body alone is £35 from us to uk
