I recently set my chassis up for drifting, very difficult to get the hang of.

Just spraying up my new shell, a Skyline R34, couldn't find as an IS200 in time.

Lucky boy...what "model" bodywork is yours...is it a Lex by any chance?

Any more pictures?

PS - :duh: just read your note...

Pic's of the Skyline?

[lee_iceman]

no more pics yet mate, if it turns out well, it should look good.

Only just finished masking the bonnet, windows and lights.

Still have to mask the design :o

where is a good place to buy good RC cars (i don't mean the rubbish you can get from argos ).

i quite fancied getting a petrol powered one a couple of years ago, but never got round to it. a good, fast RC car sounds pretty good.

any links/suggestions??

The site I tend to use the most is

Models in Motion

Very quick delivery and good products.

The nitro car I have is this one

Tamiya TG10

Pretty decent kit, although I have changed the engine for a .15, just for a bit more ooomph, estimated top speed is now 42mph in about 1.5 secs.

Ok, thanks to a bit of help from the sun today managed to get the shell sprayed, didn't turn out too bad. Still needs to be trimmed.

That is wayyy fun. Never considered drifting with my r/c car - can just about make it lose traction (its 4WD) but mind you, the tires are balding a fair bit... Maybe a trip to WIM to get the geo sorted

or you could wrap the tryes in electrical tape :winky:

about 4/5 layers should suffice for a bit of fun.
