Hey guys, thanks for all your help when I was looking at getting into Drifiting. I really appreciate all the advice and help you guys gave.

So, I would like to display the fruits of "our" labor......my new TC4 Drifter. This is only the car, not the body. The new BMW M3 GT 190mm body arrived today, so I have not had a chance to paint it.

I installed a 5700 Mamba MAX BL motor system in the car and will run 4200 IB cell, and eventually 6000mAh Lipo pack. Should be nice!!!

I have installed HPI Drift tires/wheels for the short term until my RCDrift ABS wheels arrive. I plan on mounting the ABS tires on HPI 6mm TE37 wheels (either black or chrome, I have both)

Enjoy and thank you!!!!!

You have enough power in that beasty to use the HPI tyres like brushed people use ABS A video please when you've done the body

Nice chassis.

Thanks...

Do you think that the ABS tires will be too slick? I do really like the HPI version, but they are pretty expensive.

there IS a night and day difference between Micro Drifting and 10th Scale Drifting AND there is a Night and day difference between pvc and the HPI tires.

The 10th scale with the hpi is soooo much nicer!

URC

That is a problem. You need something more like E tape, cheap, but with the durability between the HPI's and ABS. Someone thought about using heatshrink, but it was hard to get such large/think heatshrink, but they found it eventually. Look for the cheapest drift radials you can find.

use the hpi hard compund rubber, thats what i use, abs spins like mad and then you dont move...lol...

p.s looks sweet!!...

niceeee, clean

You mean something like this:

The 2nd one is the verision that is mounted the wheels that I am using. Any difference in drifting between the treaded one and the slick version?

Thor Bob is that you?

Looks nice m8 but you dont need BL to drift lol
it aint about speed its about style [8D]

let's see it in action....a video when the body is done

I understand......its not needed, but its what I hade laying around for a motor/esc solution.

I actually think I might have a 540 motor (trinity of some sort) in a box somewhere....and an ESC. If I can find em, I might put them in to see how it goes and then decide on what one I like better.

URC

nah only joking m8 im just jealous really lol
try and get some video if ya can be cool to see [sm=thumbup.gif]
