How about a 1st generation (gearbox) RS4? I'd love to off mine...there's a ton of spares for it included. I haven't gotten pics together yet for the BST, but if you wanna go there shoot me a PM.

I would recomend an HPI car like a rs4 pro or Pro2. their dirt cheap and the body mounts will line up with the ones on the body.

good point. my loyalty to a.e. is pretty solid on this though, and i much prefer the shaft layout of the tc cars.

i've watched a couple videos of rc drifting, they look pretty dern fun. gonna go that route.

I was just talking to a friend of mine about starting an R/C drift club here in the Houston area. I got into drifting with 1/18 stuff, but I have been wanting a 1/10 ever since. Drifting is a ton of fun, and can be done relatively inexpensively. Although I am planning to spend a good chunk of change on my rig when I finally get around to it LOL. :mrgreen:

it certainly looks fun. its kinda like crawling where you can do it in a relatively small area with little or no skill. 8)

And you can have a YOKOMO that's readily available!
