Hey guys im looking at youtube videos and im wanting a drifter. but i dont really want to spend too much. PLus if i can find one for my dad too ill be happy happy happy. Im a newbie at drifting so i need something good for starters. Let me know what you have thanks.
If you are looking for a new roller the Team Associated Club Racer (http://www.teamassociated.com/cars_and_trucks/TC4/Club_Racer/) is a great choice. It's the same as the TC4 (which we have) and you can get parts easily, even locally.
dude just do what chase and I did we got ours off of nitrorcx.com you can get into a brushed drifter for like $100 bucks and since you dont really crash at high rates of speed you dont break alot of parts!! i had mine for like 2 summers and never broke anything!!
I still haven't broke anything on the driftstar. I just started dumping money into it to make look pretty. Still run brushed in it. Let me know when u get one and we'll go out drifting.
Umm i dunno. Whatcha got? im not gunna be able to do drift comps just something to mess with. And that maybe look good an a trailer behind a tf2
There isn't any comps around untill we start it. All u need is a basic 4wd on road chassis. Should be easy to find wnd cheap. Dont forget about ebay!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-10-Hpi-Rc...Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item43c19af91b I found this one that looks pretty cool. I found another hpi one too but for like 60.00$ as a roller. Im trying to find it now.
i wouldnt worry about bodies at the moment they are cheap on ebay!! http://www.ebay.com/itm/380712882201?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 hes one example!! i would look for a cheap roller then just get a hobbyking brushless system because u can get a 9t brushless for around $60 bucks and there pretty decent systems!!
I agree with Richard about the body. But if u jump right into a 9t brushless It will take u forever to learn how to control it. You dont need alot when drifting on plastic tires. Check 8t out. http://www.nitrorcx.com/51c806-driftstar-350green-24ghz.html?gclid=CIb0xbeS6roCFeh0QgodCUcAJw U cant find better deal. Complete rtr. And is the same chassis as the hpi sprint. U could get 2 of them for what u would spend on 1. I know the no one is crazy bout the name. But I love mine, I have 3 drifters and this is the only one still put together drifts like it did when I first got it. Most parts I found fit. Nothing broke but has been aluminumiezed. Lol. I get my bodies and wheels from ebay and I cut my own tires. I would say get this to get started. But if u have the electronics already. Then I would find a decent priced roller like that hpi or a tc3 or 4
Hey guys im trying to sell a couple of my mini t cars so I can buy a drifter I think. Just not sure on which one ill get. Itll probably be a nitrorcx one. Is there a better one then the others on their site?
the nitrorcx.com drifters are a great begianners drifter! and for about $110 shipped rtr you can beat it
