For paint i used 4 coats of rc-250 outlaw black then removed tape and sprayed 3 coats of tamiya PS-38 and 1 uber thick coat of black to top it off, the blu was too dark and looks kinda puple like in the sun.

RE: POST A PIC OF YOUR DRIFTER THREAD!!!!!!!!!
 

Dude, great sheels and chassis,

Btw- can i have your "BACKUP" car!:D:D

RE: POST A PIC OF YOUR DRIFTER THREAD!!!!!!!!!
 

^^^... thats a jracing heatsink or fan so it looks, im buying a new chassis to drift with, only a comp car though, eddie...or c9vev, if i enter the time attck mode and shell comp do i need two cars then??..[:-]

RE: POST A PIC OF YOUR DRIFTER THREAD!!!!!!!!!
 

Thanks guys...

sir crashalot: You do not 'need' a second chassis for time attack but if you wanna do well its really needs to be a race competitive car I guess. We run the day quite quick so there would be little time to change setups for drift to race and then back to drift again so if you have the moolah to throw around and you want a new chassis then you might as well but its not imperative.

Shells that are entered into the Concours comp. have to also be used in the drift qualifying and tsuiso rounds as we do not want to encourage people just to lob their shelf queens on the track and blast the competition away.

I hope that answers you Q's.

RE: POST A PIC OF YOUR DRIFTER THREAD!!!!!!!!!
 

hell yea it does, just showing my chick your pics in race car mag...lol,

and i may add... you are very tall...lol

this is gonna be so cool, il just keep the new car im gonna get and drift, .... wow... :D

RE: POST A PIC OF YOUR DRIFTER THREAD!!!!!!!!!
 

so one. how hard is it to maintain that yokomo...two how do you like the TA05. and three wich handles better?

nice shtuff overall!

RE: POST A PIC OF YOUR DRIFTER THREAD!!!!!!!!!
 

Crash- what new car are u getting, May i recemend the Tamiya Ta-05 for smooth track driftin![8D]

RE: POST A PIC OF YOUR DRIFTER THREAD!!!!!!!!!
 

you could dude, but....

im getting the one and only TRF415 MSx rheinard edition.... will be soooo nice!!

any ideas for a shell people??

RE: POST A PIC OF YOUR DRIFTER THREAD!!!!!!!!!
 

Haha, *****... :)
Erm, the Yokomo was real easy to maintain. The suspension was bulletproof I found and the the only problem I had was the fact that the SSG seems to only like really short shocks. The drivetrain was also very free running and never caused my any problems. Then again I do take a lot of care with the chassis' and strip them down and thoroughly clean them after every major event and do the frequent thorough brush downs and lube after every run which is needed.

The TA05 seemed awesome indoors, better than my SSG but outdoors on old tyres (which didn't help) I have yet to find a great setup. It takes a few runs I guess. I've only had 3 battery packs of testing it outdoors so far at Snetterton so I need more time.

Probably looks cool to see the minivan drift.

Finally finished my Tamiya RX-7 kit. Hopups and full LED kit. Still waiting for the new wheels. I kind of want to get another one and make it a shelf queen.
