update on my build here it was before....  and here it is now sitting pretty on its new shoes.   did a bit of modyfying on the standard upper arms.. to save buying adjustable ones... chopped a chunk out the middle and pin drilled a bar in and refitted.  heres the result of that.. needs a little moar imo.. but will have to shave a bit off as it is as close to the suspension as can be.  |

As chatting with mike over the weekend, i'm prepping my crazy nitro rush evo drifter Be interesting to see how it performs, general consensus in the r/c drifting world is that nitro is too snappy on the throttle to be able to control drifts that well. |

I've had to abandon my modified TB01 chassis plans, I couldn't get the M Chassis sussy bit on, and still geive the correct wheelbase, so I'm just going to bring my E30 TT01 instead.
Packing it for the flight should be interesting…

Just out of curiosity, who's making the course? No-one, unless you're volunteering. I don't even think we've had an 'ok' from the organisers to use the carpark [or random other bit of flat tarmac] yet. I certainly don't think anyone has been forethought enough to plan a track. Anyone got some of those little plastic discs used in soccer training? |

this was actually going to be my next question...
is it going ahead, and do we have a small allocated spot (flat)
and is it going to happen on saturday camping, or on sunday...
if neither happens then I'm sure we will all have our cars to hand and sure we can find some small spot to play about, beer cans and anything else we can find will surely do. if its a laugh then maybe plan into next year.?

Guys If you want to have a plan in the paddock area on the Friday night you are welcome. STRICTLY - only Friday, and only in the paddock. Its pretty flat and a good space though so you should be able to have a load of fun |
