I wish there was more on this forum. I was thinking of buying a tt01.
I just did buy a TT-01 from everything I had been reading in this forum and another forum on this website. I would say RC Drifting is a big thing, alot of people I work with are wanting to get into it, mostly because we are all car people and just can't afford to drive cars anymore.

Take me for example, the last time I was into this hobby was over 7 years ago, hadn't messed with it since. When I stopped, Nimh batteries where not even out yet and if they were it was high price and top dollar for them. When I started looking in to this stuff again, I was down right amazed at what technology had done for this hobby!!!

I have always loved drifting, I have drifted real cars on closed course not very well mind you but I have done a little bit, with a M3 to a 325i and even a Camaro (didn't work as well as the BMWs), however I just can't afford to do that anymore. The tires . . . way to expensive, the gas . . . not even going to start, maintance . . . yeah, possibility of wreaking . . . um yeah.

HAHAHA I didn't even know you could drift a RC car till about 3 weeks ago when I was looking for drifting videos online from the BBC show Top Gear and I came across a D10 RC Drift video on youtube and I was simple memorized, it was awesome. So yeah I get my TT-01 chassis today and I look forward to getting into drift :-D because from my perspective, its cheaper, you can do it longer, and its safer, and it looks just as cool! OH and you don't *@&#% yourself when a drift goes wrong!

When I first signed up all I was interested in was drifting but then I saw the db-01 and I fell in love but now I want a drifter so bad. Anyways I have always loved drifting its what got me into racing (oh and nascar to). I would much rather wreck an rc car than a real car!
