and my tattered R34 shell i use for drifting, thats just what came with the car, ive also got a lamborghini shell ( cant remember if its gallardo or muciellago),



the black wheels are just my tyres for in the street, these gold ones have my drift tyres on them and i have a white set that has a better race slick set, that i only use when racing, which i havnt done in a long time.



but yeh ive had it for about 4 years now, and thats the original shell. its not the fastest one ever but more than enough to have a good time with.

oh and sorry bout the large images,
man is that the olny battury u got?? it looks like a1800 maph nmhi battery. i love all the aluminim parts. thats what i would like to get soon.

yeh the aluminium bits r pretty nice, the aluminium drive shaft from front to rear is a MUST in my opinion, ud be suprised just how much the standard plastic one flexes. that battery in it is a 3000mAH NiHm, ive also got a 3800mAh

oh jeeze, thank god i didnt start this topic.

im more of an offroader with a fair few brushless kits done and destroyed.
had my fair go at nitro too, but just got fed up with the hassles and maintainance, or replacing pull starters / wiring on electric starts.

my only 2 drifters were some HBL's on pvc tyres, the ghetto RC drifters way (HBL sedans are basically a chinese clone of a TL-01)

HBL? Do you mean Haiboxing? That's what my monster truck is, a Bonzer Cross Tiger on a poor quality copy of a TL-01B chassis. The chassis on those are total crap, best to replace them with genuine Tamiya parts as they break. What I do is buy hop-ups for my genuine Tamiya TL-01 drift car, and fob the standard higher quality parts onto my monster truck.

Gav.
