nope, SG drifters is only focusing on electric cars at the moment
Due to the fact that nitro cars are much more noisier and destructive, its not allowed to be used in drift meets
I wouldnt want to drift in the same track as a nitro car, if you get what i mean?

TT01D chassis should be the one you should get, due to its drift spec.
It has more customizable parts so you can adjust some stuff like camber and toe
It also have the neccessary hopups like aluminium shaft, and comes with a sport-tuned motor..

However i believe it is as customise-able as TT-01D..(correct me if im wrong) I think now HobbyLink got sell a $350 set called the XB TT-01D.. XB=Expert Built It is RTR but if u wan to change the electronics to a better one it requires more $$ i think.. I would suggest the Bryant TT-01D package or the $298 set.. I believe tis 2 sets is worth the money.. =X My 2cents worth.. |

Can send him a PM. You should read up in the chassis section about the different TT-01s first. But if you want to, there are other options too. TT-01 is one of the easier chassis to fix up and set. Others you can try may give you setting problems if you aren't familiar yet. Some may recommend getting mid-range chassis to save money since most people upgrade after a while. But it's very preference based thing. I personally feel that TT-01D is not too bad and can last quite long before a change/upgrade. But again, I'm biased. ;D Read the following link sgdrift.proboards24.com/index.cgi?board=ForNewbiesInterestedParties&action=display&thread=1159274637 |
