Hi guys, Just like to introduce myself, as I am new to the drifting world. I have seen all your videos and read through many threads and am on my way to drifting nirvana!  Thought I might ask while I'm here, as I am new I am looking to purchase a Tamiya TT-01 which you guys highly recommend for beginners. I have about 2 years experience in nitro on-road and came to electric for the drift experience and action.  Do you guys recommend Hop-ups for a TT-01 when I get it, or is it just not worth it? (It's the only one within my budget a.t.m)  SGDRIFTERS Thanks. Spirited. |

Hi guys, sry about the long reply. Finally got my TT-01 kit, she's built and ready to go. Got some hop-ups (Propeller shaft, bearings, RS 540 Sport tuned motor, upper arm kit and drift rims) I have a WRX STi 2004, painted pearlescent white-green, looks quite cool. Modified the rear wing and changed look to a tuner. Will post picks. I've been drifting heaps. Got myself a discharger, 3000 Nimh and my car lasts for ages (run time) Can't wait till tomorrow, more drifting!! |

Sry guys, Yeah, I'm not local. Wish I was though, sounds like drifting is so popular around where you guys are. I can only wish I was there. Yeah, I'm in Australia - I think I have some connections for meets, so it should be all good If I only I could be there, I would go to meets everyday if they were on that much where you guys are! d**n. Thanks. Spirited. |
