My post was not directed towards him it was directed towards you and Fresh and all the other people who just post for the heck of it.

Forget it. Obviously you don't see the point I am trying to make.

I know it was directed toward me, thats why I am answering. And no I don't see your point. Like it says in red above the box your typing in "Please resist the urge to curse, flame, degrade, insult or embarrass someone in your post." Often I believe that if you can't say something nice you should often not say anything at all. Especially things that have to do with creativity. I remember my first body was horrible. That guys was far better than most people have done for the first and second time for that matter. I don't think he posted pics for people on RCU to nit pick every little flaw in his work. He posted it because he was proud of what he did for the first time. Maybe you should grow up a little bit and be more considerate of peoples feelings. Yes this is a public forum, but to simple point out flaws is not what this site is about. Lets see some of your bodies. How about that?

I would like to note that I offered something constructive in my first post. I have read this entire useless page and have reread calvin33's origonal post. I stand by my comments. I will not be posting about this anymore.

um yeh i know of at least 2 friends who drift in comps in the UK who both spend many hours a week polishing there cars etc
the point of drift cars isnt just how they run but ALSO how they look so of course people are gonna keep there pride and joy tidy.
If u choose to bash your drift car to death so be it each to there own...
as for the comments towards other peoples work i judge it by this of course anyone can go out and spend a shed load of money on top kit but seeing some of the great mods on this thread make it better,after all its a thread to show your drifter right?
so before posting neg comments post your ride up or STFU [8D]

Amen brotha.

You know I look at drifters like Shelf queens that people actually use. Just the opposite of say a T-Maxx shelf queen thats done all up in aluminumed up and the owner never uses it.

Hey kurt if its the TT-01D spec u cant go wrong bro for a drift machine comes with most of the hop ups u need to drift asap
The TT-01 is the entry level tamiya car but with those hopups the performance picks up too
Ive had my tt-01 for just over a year now and added most of the hopups u get in the drift spec
The bodies are usually top quality try and get the light kit version it looks awesome trust
Cant go wrong for the cash bro [8D]

Here is my NSX, took me a week to finish and I've only driven it once... Obviously I don't drift with those wheels and tires but they look a lot better than my beat up drift tires. Now that I think about it I need to order some more for when the snow melts...any suggestions?

Great cars guys
love the roof scoop airvent [X(][X(]

tiger76 u must b a old guy
lol yes 31 years young

And yeah i have a passion for drifting its like a illness lol most of the posters on here are awesome peeps who help out others any way they can with info etc good job people [8D]
On the piont of neg comments i also agree you should write what u think no problems with that,but remember that poster just stuck up a pic of his pride and joy and prob put a lot of hours into so a little more thought wouldnt hurt.
ie instead of needin to say how crap something looks maybe offer some ideals of change??maybe u will think of something that person didnt..
What looks good to you may not look good to others that life but were ALL here as drifters and hopefully to help out if we can.
I visit alot of drift forums and seen quite a few showoff threads but this is the best i know off,you guys should be proud of your works here[sm=thumbup.gif]
