The thrill of brushless rubber tire drifting. tires exploded and bits of foam went all over the car park

its a mamba esc with a 380C 6L on 6 cells with 24/58 gearing. originally got it for my RC10T2 truck but I retired it , so going from a stadium truck to a plastic onroad car leads to pleasant power sliding and spinning all 4 wheels on launch

could be the gearing mesh of teh pinon and spur. doubt its the drive shafts.

the tt-01 uses 50-55mm touring shocks

Latest pics - been running the Tamiya drift tires and for batteries been using a 3700mah lipo pack from Finedesignrc.com

Been averaging over 20 - 25 min run times. I have the ESC set to stop working once they go down to a certian voltage. I run the TT-01 for 20 - 25 minutes and seems to still have pleanty of juice left. Not yet ran it until the batt's die.

A lot of companies now make drift tires. HPI, Tamiya etc... Here is a link to the ones I am using on my TT-01:
http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...0&I=LXRLD4&P=K

They have more traction than PVC or ABS pipe from the DIY store and slick enough to allow me to drift. So far I like them.

My ferrari FXX body is still brand new. its came as a tamiya finished body and i would never dream of bashing with such a nice body.

I have other bodies ,but when i just drive around by myself. im too lazy to put them on so most of them are still in good condition.
