Very cool, thanks for posting!

No problem, it is pretty cool looking when it drifts. I wonder what the electric drifters will say about this one since it is closer to their style of drifting. :eek:

RE: Nitro Drift D1- SPEC, Yokomo Drifter ( VIDEO TOO )
Yeah, stay away from wot and keep it rich. I re-tuned mine such that its richer on the top end, and then I leaned-out the low so it could still get good transitional power. I run my idle pretty high when drift tuned. (For you newbies, always tune in that order: high for temp, low for transition, and then idle). I also set my two speed to kick at a low speed so I can use it to initiate drifts. Made the whole deal a lot more fun. I can't do THAT with my electric drifter! I check my compression about every 4 or 5 tanks, and its stayed about the same, so the engine is holding up just fine. Just be careful not to over-rev (you'll snap the crank) and keep the temps down.
Thats an excellent copy of Taniguchi's car (gotta love officially licensed products). HKS actually retired that car from competition at the end of the Fontana D1 usa vs japan event last month. This year he'll be drifting an Altezza. I'd prefer a copy of Kazama's S15, or better yet a zenki S14 body like my drift car (1:1). THAT would make my day. |

that is one sweet car. is quite expensive but....... i love the body and the rims on that thing. a question. is it just the way the pic is taken or is the front wheel smaller than the back? is just looks like it in a couple of the pics. i actually watched the video a couple weeks ago and saw that thing go and man is it sweet when it flies past :)

Yeah S.A.E.W.O.T, it's pretty sick, i am not too interested in it though because yokomo's previous drift wheels wore out rather quickly and i can't see these new ones lasting much longer. |

Well the yokomo's are 2 pieces, there's a hard rubber tire, and some plastic inserts you put in the tire groove. They're replacable, but not cost effect for how long they last.

ORIGINAL: cssdev Hey bud, Those are just yokomo's msrp, there's one on e b a y for 350 right now to give you an idea of real pricing. .steven. |
RE: Nitro Drift D1- SPEC, Yokomo Drifter ( VIDEO TOO )
For a rtr with the drift body, wheels, and drift tires it's a decent price. I don't know what radios and servos yokomo uses, they're usually the weak point of rtr rigs. Has anyone seen chassis pics of this car yet? Rumors said it was their gt-4 rtr, which seems about right because they needed to clean their warehouse of them.

That's messed up...they're giving us their leftovers...[sm=punching.gif]
But in all seriousness, this is a good thing to promote RC drifting (Nitro drifting in particular) as we should see more companies developing drift specific kits. I'd like to see a high-end drift kit with a decent engine and hop-up parts. I would expect HPI is next in line as their Stage D kit will probably turn into a full kit. |
