yeah… my Tamiya TA04 trf edition drifts nice when you diable to front belt and run MR, but it needs some weight in the front to balance out. I think I’ve spent a little over $1200 on the chassis, hop ups, bodies, and servos. but it’s fun fun. ^\_\_\_^ ---

haha dont even get me started on advance hobbies and their tracks that they are opening. or anyone for that mattter ive ‘heard’ of probly 14 tracks around the gta opening… some do some dont… and if they do… they generally get shut down faily quickly becuase they try to run onroad gas sedan INSIDE… thats a bad idea… as for advance setting up a track… i doubt they ever will… they’ve tryed many times but nothing has ever come of it… the guys who used to run toronto rc (rc champ) wanted to get a new track going but the problem that they and many others had was that if you open a track… DO NOT EXPECT TO MAKE MONEY… itll never happen in canada… even martin crisp (rich bitch rc dude) didnt want to bother opening a track cus he knew it would never fly… GT [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/rc-drifting/92929.md?page=2)
