R/c Drift Drivers

[dorifto-san4o8]

So i got me a yokomo drift r/c car and a micro rs4 that i turned into a drift car. Lots of fun but gets pretty boring playing by myself and not doing tandem battles. I was wondering if some bay area people want to meet up and play once a week. We can set up a track or go down to hobby world in GILROY to race at there carpeted indoor track. Or if you got other cars you want to bring out and run is also welcome.

cars i currently run:
-Yokomo mr4tc (drift spec)
-HPI micro RS4 drifter
-Tamiya F201
-Factory team tc3
-Nitro tc3

I have a yokomo, but i wrecked it, drifted into a tree. lol
Broke the right wheel thing (donno what is called), do you know of any place that stocks alot of yokomo parts? If so tell me where so i can get it running again.

I got a HPI pro2 thats drift/grip. I have like 1.5k into it. All CF and aluminum and nirto car ball joints. Thing is indestructable except for the belts which I need to fix. I'd be down, but not that far away. Come closer to the north bay and well talk.

Im not sure of a place in oakland to get parts to fix it but in san jose there is Sheldons Hobbies, R/C unlimited, Hobby world.

Hobbytown usa fremont. Support a fellow s chassis owner. I sell all major rc brands. As for a drift battle contest, I'll see about setting something like that up for this upcoming race season. It only take three people to start another racing class. Hit me up for more info.

I went there, I was told that the parts i needed were discontinued.

go to Victors Hobbys...right next to Newark Memorial Highschool....he has ALL YOKOMO parts, because he race's his TB-03 professionally

Hah, So I gather I might've met you before? Which car do you have? I'll check into it myself.

I race every class professionaly, but as for Victor, he isn't that fast, and after that guy stole my friends web page for his store, I have no love for the guy.

I need the motor mounts, oh now that i look at it its the left side thats messed up. I donno if i was talking to you but if i was, i asked about a 240 coupe shell. When do you work, so i can go and you could help me and possibly give me a discount. lol j/p about the discount.

Oh and i donno what kind of yokomo it is. How can i find out?

so you work at the hobby town freemont? Ill most likely be there this friday to race my team associated 18b. let me know more info on those races friday nights and location and time. ill see if i can find some more people to race drift cars so we can start up a class. I just put in a brushless system in my yokomo drift car and loving it

[DJPimpFlex]

I want brushless. That shits hawt. I spend to much money on my real car....lol

i was out of R/C for like 3 years now and after seeing this new brushless/lipo/drifting rc stuff its starting to bring me back in even though i have my real car to worry about. And plus too some guy called me up a month ago when he seen me racing a while back and wants me to test out some of his new brushless products. So i guess ill give it a shot but my real car still comes first.

[!Zar!]

Yeah, we race from about 7~ till 9pm (closing) But if there are enough people we'll keep the store open a little longer just for the racers. We use the CORE transponder system and a transponder is roughly $20. The ASC 18b is a nice choice. Only problem is since it's popular and we have a track it's hard to constantly keep parts instock. I'll be there friday. So I guess I'll see you then?

I have that same problem wanting to get out of rc. It worked for a few months. But then something new comes out...

[Andrew Bohan]

would any of you guys be interested in drifting your RC cars at a night drift or two? we could set up a track somewhere and you guys could have battles or something.

[DJPimpFlex]

^I might bring my car out if I can get my shit fixed. I'm lazy ad theres to many small parts. As long as its not all gravel and shit I would battle.

[James_240sx]

I have a Hpi Super nitro rs4 with a .21 in it drifts pretty good till my tires fall apart or off =P

[Ricks15]

isnt there a hobby store up there in sacramento that hosts to professional races indoors for off road and grip racing.

[James_240sx]

The only Shop i know of in sac is Capital City RC and they do off road they dont do onroad.
