That was cool as He##. Very awesome, I need one of those, black w/kazera rims.

 

Thats Fuking Tight!!!!, what the price for the setup of one of those? and what do they run on?

 

the chassis are yokomo and tamiya 4WD electric cars. using drift tires.

we're using brushless motors but that's really overkill in terms of power but great for the run times needed when we do demos or competitions.

unfortunately a lot of people think that these are cheap radio shack cars and are some what turned away by their high price.

for about 200 dollars you can get a drift specific chassis from yokomo and thats not including the electronics and motor which could go for another 200 dollars.

but like any other hobby fun outweighs the cost.

you can also see some of the D1 replicas www.yokomousa.com

here's some r/c drifting in the dark.

take it easy!

 

Yep, my mechanical inabilities are become more and more obvious. I wouldn't mind buying one straight out, lol.

 

i saw these at formula D and it looked like they had plastic tires.

howd you get some of them to throw up smoke?

 

pretty nice video....those guys are pros.

 

sweet vid, awesome skillz

 

those cars are too cooL! my luck I invest in one and it gets ran over in the street

 

I might have to check these things out. They look like a lot of fun. They can hold some serious angle.

 

Those are probably nitro powered RC cars. If they weren't such money pits I'd get one again

 

i want one! very cool video

 

wow..that was pretty sweet!!

 

I have an R/C Drift car but mine just spins after getting sideways. lol.

 

very cool! ...and the video was well done. I like the in-car (or on-car) camera work.

 

thats because you suck
i keed.

 

Are they all electric-powered now? Are gas-powered ones popular anywhere?

 

lol. The only think that makes it drift is the slick tires. lol.

 

ya when i was watching them drive it at FD they werent countersteering at all...they were actually straight wheeled most of the time.

i guess its all throttle control

 

nicee
