Hell all!!! 1st time builder with chassis questions.
 
Hi everyone. I am a first time builder and have a few questions. I plan to build a 4wd drift car from essentially the ground up. I do plan to modify the chassis with aluminum components, but wanted your thoughts on the following chassis as a stepping stone to become a more advance builder. Keep in mind I want to make this a budget build, while learning more and eventually building a top of the line drifter for personal use. I have listed a couple chassis I have been considering below. Thoughts and suggestions are welcomed.

@mateo619 Although I see no responses here would you mind sharing what you have learned since the post on your own and did you end up picking a chassis?

@Dkluch...

I am learning as I go little by litte. I am studying up on gear ratios when I have some free time. I went with a 3Racing Sakura XI Sport chassis. I have assembled the chassis and will now deconstruct to install various hop up parts I have purchases over the last couple of months. I decided on a Gool RC 3650 3100KV/4P Sensorless Brushless Motor w/ 60A ESC and a Yeah Racing Drift Spec Low Pro servo. My next purchases will be a battery, radio and esc control card. I plan on going with a Pandora Lexus Altezza body pictured here in a flat grey color.

I have also leaned toward light buckets and purchased a few sets of wheels. I have some photos of where I am at now I will try to upload. Advice is appreciated. Thank you all.
