If I have a new actual car by then I will come too As for tyres u will want to run carpet tyres otherwise u can't get any speed up and it will just grip...
Thats what I like to hear Hope to see you guys there! I ran my E10 on T-Drifts on carpet (on Prima GT Felt the same as what will be at this event) and they seem to be ok. the DIB on treaded T-Drfits didn't seem to like it as much though I must admit :$. I'm getting some TN219s from Mitto in the near future but my missile car will still be running T-Drifts I was talking to Rob and he says that most of his ovat drifters run on the Ansmann tyres and that they step out on carpet pretty well
If you dont live to far out of the way there maybe i can pick ya up dude. Defoup for this now 2 of us can make it.
yh the ansmann tyres are ok but we only drift anticlockwise and our cars are set up totally different to yr drift cars!!! we only want ours to slide around the bends then hook up down the straights with loads of traction and turn in and we're trying to knock eachother out the way to!!!!! so please dont take it that the ansman's are "the" tyre to use im sure mitto,rich and others have a much better idea than me what will work
From what i've seen the TN219s are the best for carpet but if the cars are on Ansmanns or T-Drifts they still will drift so don't be put off of coming because you don't want to spend £18 on a new set of tyres I was with some people last night who were using RC Geeks tyres, A brand i've never really had much contact with but there cars seemed to be going pretty well
I have a few different sets of tyres on rims so i can see whats best for me, i have an obsession with rc wheels i have best part of 15 sets. Plus i probably have one the heaviest cars by far, so i do end up with more grip than most esp on carpet. Lookig forward to this one thats for sure, drifting on carpet does rock.
Really looking forward to this just got myself some brushless power 7.5t speed passion motor and gt speedo, that should get me sideways!!!!!
wheeeyyy thats more like it mate!! i've got to order a new shell, reciever and tyres and then i'll be ready haha!
Yes mate. I'm looking forward to it. Just got a couple of things I want to do to the car and im good to go. Oh and new tires of course
Its looking good rich we need to hook up soon sort out track layout ect im buzzing now really looking forward to it
