Drifting, had to try it out....my new build!!

[Desert RC]

So I know most you guys think this is pointless but after watching some vids of this passing fad I had to just try it out. It was an itch that needed handeled. I am an old import guy and my last "cool" car was a JDM front Champ White Type R. It was my love!!

Anyway... So here is my platform started in the direction of drifting!! Something totally new to me.

So far the wheels were ordered from Hong Kong....body also to be revealed soon. Also I have some sic sic sic falken azenis that I picked out at the LHS, I smiled so hard when I found them as they were what I had mounted on my Japanese RSZ-R's on the Type R before the wifey made me get rid of her.

A few blisters later from mounting the drift tires in boiling water and I am here.

Hahaha, true..

Really the reason I have gone this route is to have fun without bashing the fawk out of this beautiful rig....meanwhile own it for a bit just to know i did....and then sell it mint while its still newer market wise. I know the t3 is out.

I have the a TC4 FT that I plan to beat the living shit out of....and more suited for drifting as well being shaft driven.

But all in all yes I agree!!

Never did like drifting myself, more of a touring car racing fan. It is fun but I'd rather have the higher speeds. Wish I didn't sell all my touring cars stuff. Also wish there was real racing here in the valley. I would have kept it then. Oh well.
