thanks to my ex step dad not being able to keep it in his pants i now own one of these (as well as a lot of other shit lol). wasn't really sure what it was all about so did a Google and it turns out there's quite a scene with them, has any one else on here got one? theres some pritty cool drifting videos featuring them too click me lol

just gotta try and get my one working now and see if i can drift the bitch

lol, yeah i got one free for winning a 10th scale competition

never used it, but there pretty cool lol

Yea I used to have one, it was a laugh. Kept going through batteries though

I had one about 3 or 4 years ago, Ate batteries so fast!, expensive for what it is aswell

i have a battery powered RC car which'll do about 30mph. never tried "drifting" it really, duno if it'll work as its 4WD haha but it'll spin in donuts no problem

got a lush '65 mustang shell for it too

I had one about 3 or 4 years ago, Ate batteries so fast!, expensive for what it is aswell

expensive? my mates just found them for £22, i know times are tight but that's not exactly expensive mate lol. i got one of my kids a simple RC car for xmas that cost about the same, besides this one was free so i'm not complaining. they may of been a lot dearer 3-4 years ago tho?

although saying that there's one on ebay that the lads spent some thing like £180 on so i guess it soon adds up once you start modding them.

It's all about the Tamiya fuel controlled remote control cars.

is that the nitro ones? if so i had one of them a couple of years back (funnily enough i got that for free because my ex brother in law couldn't keep his dick in his pants as well ). it was good fun but not really some thing i could use in the house like this one lol. wouldn't mind another one if i found one cheap enough actually...

Yeah the nitro ones, you need a big area to run those things.

I smashed mine into a kerb in a car park.

They're expensive but great fun.

shits got cheaper since i bought one, they were £65

Hahaha they're pretty cool things, would be sweet getting a few of them, making a small track out of ply or something and running a mini GP at polo show

Love the little pooch at 1:42

I've got a 1/8th nitro buggy, needs a new spur gear though but trying to find the right protech stuff is hard

this could work out expensive, looking at HPI savages now, i wanna jump shit

tamiya's are real poo

savages are pretty cool, mad as hell and can throw owt at them!

4WD leccy ones are the ones that they use for RC drifting. Wrap all the tyres with insulation tape, and it will drift everywhere.

your mums real poo neil, go get a tamiya and you will see they WIN dont just go off rumour

av drove plenty of them! there well poo..and there not well built e.t.c

Iv got a Xmod skyline spent loads of money and time on it

I Got like most the mods for it + i was borad some time ago so i smoothed the bumpers and went for the euro look looks mint

No, works on tarmac brilliantly, it just wears through the tape a bit quicker, but still lasts ages.

I've got a Nitro HPi car atm

had loads in the past

all great fun,

Had a TAMIYA though, didnt like it, pants lol

Any of you RC-ers know where to get old protech parts? my buggy is a phaser4

I need a spur gear, want a metal one if poss. 5 points to who ever directs me to the right place :-D

AFAIK these bad boys are all 4WD with plackky tyres...

Where can i get a cheapy un? Looks like a cheap laugh!

EDIT: just remembered I've got a Mini-Z Z3 floating about somewhere, same sorta shite?
