New TT01 Drift Spec 2005 STi

Can't wait to take it on the road!









Took about 9 hours, first rc kit I've ever done. I'm impressed with the kit, and I can't wait to take it on the road! I've also got some new wheels and hpi pro compound radials so I can race it as well as drift it.

I'll post some more pics in a second.

Transmitter is the Futaba 2PL, yep.

So, I us... Forgot all about the body film when I was finishing the model.. (don't blame me, I was up all night building it... I was tired. hah) So when I took it out to road test today (that thing is a blast! it hauls ass with the hpi low profile pro compound radials I got.) and crashed it a few times, I was reminded of the film and, heh, I tore it off with my decals and all... So, where can I get a spare subaru decal sheet?

and it's alright, I'm getting a bmw m3 body soon for free.

It drifts pretty decently so far from what I've experienced, but it's only my tenth time or so even driving an RC car let alone trying to drift with it. I bet once I take it on a better road surface and get some skill, it'll drift mean.

However, so far I'm having more fun running the road radials and doing drills and up and down hill chicane runs.
