RE: TT01 upgrade parts are mostly useless!

How does the plastic propshaft cope with BL? How come the steering assembly hasn't been shattered by the driveshaft hitting it?

RE: Nitros can drift to!!!

2wd can drift. Nitro can drift. Electric and 4wd drifts better though.

It's a bit like the 2wd/4wd debate D: Only less clear cut. Nitro for drift is like a...

RE: First Drift Accident (damage) pics!

So.. after that read- no damage!

Lucky :D

I went backwards first into a wall on Sunday and dethreaded the front diff case and lost a screw on my tt01. I also rounded off 2 (plastic) hexes...

RE: GOING FOR 100MPH OR DIE TRYING.......

Are you going to build an undertray for the car so that there is as little drag as possible on the inside of the body. Someone with a high speed EP with a Corvette shell made one of those out of CF....

RE: New cyclone on its way

If you haven't bought a 19t motor already a brilliant one for drifting is the Yokomo D1SP, which is the D1RC motor of choice in the series.

RE: NEXT Tamiya car...

I'm torn on my next one. I'm thinking of not getting a new one and shoehorning some TL01 RA bits onto my tt01, or getting a TXT-1 and going crawling. The problem is that I have just about the right...

RE: I thinks it complete??!?!

Bingo. It allows the rear wheels to lock up (like an e-brake) while letting the front wheels continue spinning, so they have some grip. This lets them flick the tail out into the slide, and then you...

RE: Mini-T Drifter

It isn't realistically possible. The lack of sheer mass of chassis doesn't let us drift with rubber tyres in RC drift, we have to resort to a more slippery compound. Add to this the fact that there...

RE: Bringing 1/64 hobby grade racing to reality!!!

The problem you have is that this scale is very experimental, there isn't anything available for it, and you're making the push. All I can say is, reserve me one when you've got all of these problems...

RE: Bringing 1/64 hobby grade racing to reality!!!

I got a mini lipo charger thing with a mini IR helicopter. I left it at my mums house, so I can't show you, but it's good. Charges a 180mAh LiPo in half an hour, using AA batteries.
