This is my Cyclone. HPI rims with custom made ABS tires. First ones, I think they turned out pretty good. ESC is on the way, can't wait!!!

hehe yeah I guess I am. I've been collecting TA03's for a little while now which is why I have 6 of them (all with CF chassis etc). The TT01 you see above there was my first ever RC car which has been hopped up over the years to what it looks like there. At the end of the day Tamiya parts are easier to get here so I lean towards Tamiya for that reason too but I'm never affraid to try something new.
Trying to decide at the moment if I wanna try the new Schumacher mi3.5 or maybe a TRF416.

My drifter (4 Tec)


Nothing spectacular here. Its mostly stock aside from a few things added:
Sway bars
Nitro 4 Tec A arms
Nitro Tec camber links
"Custom" belt tensioner
Locked rear differential
Nitro 4 Tec stub axles
Whats on the way:
HPI wheels
AE camber link
I plan on getting aluminum shocks and if I'm lucky, I can bag that super rare graphite conversion kit.

Basically the sickest 18R you will ever see drifting or grip racing...actually probably just drifting! There's just something about sliding...

Yeah the old Tamiya's dont like the newer bigger Nimh packs and forget about getting a square shaped Lipo in there :P Lipos are the main reason I've upgraded all my TA03's to use the CF battery holder.
