You guys have inspired me, just dragged a very dusty looking TLo1 Scooby WRC McRae replica out the loft! Already been destickered and cleaned up a bit, now in the process of robbing the batteries out the Mrs ladyshave and dildo!!!

SG rocks!

Spoonman · 11-05-2007, 15:25

You could authentically do up a TL-01, you could even weld the diff if you wanted to.

kroozin86 · 11-05-2007, 15:51

weld the diff :S just use blue tack

or hot glue.... my tl-01 is being rebuilt because my motor snapped a shaft

Scooby J · 11-05-2007, 17:31

Woo hoo i use the TL-02 chassis. 4WD... unless you remove the shaft... I spent far to much on mine it must be said not a hole load left for me to buy for it!!!... got new adjustilbe suspension on the way at the mo. The stock tamiya ones arn't great.

kroozin86 · 11-05-2007, 19:20

what mods have you done, can you list everything, i wanna see if you got more than me lol

Choku-Dori · 11-05-2007, 19:34

Slightly off topic but......... here's my latest, one full race spec Kyosho Inferno Mp777 wc edition, not a drifter, but there so much power it'll easily throw out

This thing has bags of power and goes like stink

I've have a few more cars in my collection but this is my favourite runner at the moment!

a screw in a rubber hose doesnt qualify as a damper.

kroozin86 · 12-05-2007, 18:15

Haha, sounds the same as my upgrade path too. I went from a TL-01 to a HPI sport 3 (i think) then to a Street weapon, then XXX-S, finally the factory Associated TC-3. I used to do it on polished wood floor, you could get some amazing drifts on that stuff if you put the right tyres on.

initial_j · 12-05-2007, 18:58

lox that car is mega! id love to have an rc drifter but fook me some of the parts are more than real parts! spend far too much on my real s13 to think about an rc one!

i do have an electric rx7 i got given last year, not exactly that fast but it has carpet slicks for indoor drifting!

in fact i might get the masking tape and a can of matt black out..

driftnut · 12-05-2007, 19:01

I have a petrol RS Focus but I want a battery drift machine how do i go about searching for one and what are the recommendations on what to look for? ect ect

initial_j · 12-05-2007, 19:05

think mine was £50 from woolworths, they had a bronze s15 but it was sold out. think they were named "drift kings" or something ghey

driftnut · 12-05-2007, 19:14

so basically buy any old RC car and put "drift" wheel/tyres on it then! for a smooth carpark!

insane200 · 12-05-2007, 21:53

im gona have to put mine on charge again, i use a tamiya tt01 chassis i think lol, i have the yokomo drift tyres, and a uprated motor, i just need bigger cells realy so it doesnt run flat to quick.

and my spare car which has the tlo1 chassis i think.

Dex · 12-05-2007, 21:58

this was my creation last week:

no idea if it drifts with the trailerthingy, prob test it this week
