Default How many have a Drift car or a touring car 1/10

How many out there have a Drift car or touring car that still us them or are doing drift racing and were do you go..

I know that this is a part of R/C that is getting big and alot of scale guys like it because they can mod and build them alot like there scaler's...

just thought I would ask NewRed Hobbies is redoing there parking lot in the next few months and are putting in a drag strip and didn't know what all we would be running for cars but now that in last two months I have had more drifters coming to the shop then i have ever seen...

I have not drifted in a long time. The scene kinda fell apart down here which led me to crawling.

Here is my xray t2:

and some footage form one of the drift comps we used to hold

This has me wanting to build another. I have a partial TA-03 in a box I should find the rest of the parts to complete!

I just picked up an E10 from cameraman a couple weeks ago, but I really just got it for goofing around a bit and cuz it will be pretty easy to make it look like a mini version of my 'stang

OK I have 2 E10's and a Yokomo MR-4 TC and really never put any thought into drifting and have been messing around with it for the last few weeks in the drive way...

I've got my TC4 and I just need to JB weld the tear and I'm good. Right now it has limited skip tear with most traction up front.

I'm sure it would drift great with open diffs but I melted the rear diff, so it's not working period. That's why the jb weld was mentioned.

I believe there may be something in discussion at NewRedHobbies about having somewhere to drift competitively if they move to the larger place they were discussing. But nothing as of right now there is nothing. But..... There are plenty of empty parking lot areas we can go set up comes and drift if people want. I'll start getting my Subaru drift ready.
