    They got a good size basement, the name of their team is "one10 drift" their definitely using
    1/10, they run belt driven chassis. I want a course just like it. Wake up in the morning have my self a little drift maybe some after lunch. U know we'll have night session. Then of course before bed. Lol ;D

    I already have some of those orange dots.  The wood as a boarder is a good idea and could be reconfigured very easily.  It could also keep us from hitting the poles at Allen Dale.

    That's a good idea and maybe even easier than lumber to transport and layout.

    Great video with good tips.  Thanks for posting that.

    I was always curious about the HPI DBox.  It seems like cheating though.

    It kinda is, drifting is about technique, and skills, its about style not racing, when u think u got it down on an open surface. You dont, when it comes to a course, because theres no bumping, u really have to judge your speed and countering. Way more difficult with a nice course set up.

    Forsure, if u get the drift star it'll come with belted tires, but yeah any set of wheels u get we'll cut tires for them forsure. I plan on have a garage of different wheels and body. Change it up like underwhere.
