My budget is under $100 for a roller and under $180 for a rtr. I'm broke :(.

I am planning on one of these.....Gonna use my stock electronics out of my Wheely King....RTR uses the same 27T Saturn. It can be setup for drifting or touring. http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXTDD0&P=7 |

But if you can find a TL01, that's the cats ass as far as drifting goes. Dumbass, did you see the options in the question? | |

Neither of them have adjustable suspension (caster, camber, toe-in/out, etc.) I'd go with the new car, but that's just how I am. Unless you know the used car and it's owner, that is. Either are going to be well supported parts-wise I'd guess. My "drifter" is an RS4 converted to rear wheel drive only electric. 19t Venom can, Mtroniks RV15 esc. 35/81 gears. It's damn fun on indoor concrete floors. I need a set of hard tires for it now... Last edited by Big Mike; 10-31-2007 at 02:28 PM. |

I'm going to go ahead and set the MRS4 up for drifting again. Found all the parts in a parts box. Picked up a couple sets of rims from tower hobbies. Dropped a stock mini t motor in her. Plan on running a 6 cell pack. Gotta drop by the hobby shop tomorrow for deans and maybe a ae-86 body if they have one. Pics. Only two screws holding on the front end, lol. Sorry for the quality of the pictures. |

Let me know what you think, I've been debating about retiring my Electric 4-Tec since the graphite chassis I have on it has been disco'd and was looking at that one.
