rc drifting

[$heepy]

ok then you guys i have decided that this is what im gunna do for my project at school for a SACE mark for next year. i am going to build a drift rc. lol i know it sounds a bit easy but some people are making scrap books and thats it.

now i need to know what you guys reckon would be a good car. im thinking either the tamiya tt-01 or hpi e10.

if i go with the tamiya i can get it from the model shop and have a warranty on all parts and stuff like that. and if i get the hpi then i have to get it off ebay and i think that they come pre made. so im looking more at the tamiya.

what do you guys reckon i will have to do to get it to the drift spec type car??? tires, what else???

what subject is that???????

[$heepy]

its not a subject its just a home project that all year 10's can do to get an extra SACE point for next year.

[$heepy]

its to try and show that you can commit to something out of the school or some shit like that

id get the tt-01 u been on sydney rc drifters site most of em have tt-01's

and also the e10 is all plastic and not alot of mods for it as the tt-01 has endless upgrades

[$heepy]

so 1 for the tt-01

-1 for the e10 so far

[firsttimer]

e10 is easyer but the tamiya is more fun and involves you more + there is more hop ups

[$heepy]

i need one that i can build and put together aswell not just ready to run

tamiya.. no questions hands down. you will learn the car as you build it and be able to strip it down and replace whatever goes wrong. drift spec wise, look at a really hard but good wearing compound tyre, also think 40mm or 50mm pvc painted black is a common use as well.. dont go over the top with the body, find something simple and make it work.. r32 shells etc sell for some mega bucks..

you can get the little exhaust pipes, intercoolers, stickers etc from various hobby sites and ebay have a few of the scale items you may require.

man i wish they had these sleepy subjects when i was at school! show your committed to something! how easy is that! i was a volunteer firefighter at the start of year 10 all thru to the end of yr 11 then for 2 years after getting into the workforce!

keep us updated sheepy, certainly a subject(test) WHATEVER you shoud pass with FLYING colours!
