    Thats so sick. I love making them look more real with exhuast tips, and light buckets. But that track is set. I already put a putting green in my rental. I dont think they would let me lay concrete. Any one with property in the gp area that wants this kind of small track at least 20' by 20'. I will build it. Lets show these koreans how we do, ..

    I don't know what they are using, but I was getting excellent results with my Team Associated TC4 and Traxxas Velineon and Castle Creations Sidewinder brushless systems and some drift tires.

    As long as u have a 4wd chasie u can drift it, mine came as a drift car but i have some rubber grip slicks that make it impossible to drift but perfect for touring racing. Wheels and tyres are cheap online.

    I find it relaxing. If want a rush from rc i get from flying, but with rc drifting,its so addicting, i just wanting to keep building up my drift course. Thinking of going new york theme. Where drift around the statue of liberty. Also found a whitehouse 3D puzzle perfect scale for 1/10 car. But not sure how to seal it from wheather. Thinking of mad layers of clear coat. Any thoughts?

    You know what would be cool?  A Mountain pass drift course.  Maybe made like those guys who do model railroad.

    Speaking of which, are there 1/10 scale model trains?  That might be cool to have a scene with both trains and 1/10 scale drift cars.

    I thought of that too, someone told me to look for woodland creations, but the train scene is really expensive, your better of maiking it your self, my only thing is my track is outside. So i need to rain proof everythingbeen looking on youtube for how to make small scale village.

    Maybe they meant Woodland Scenics? I found this and their stuff looks pretty sweet.
