Congrats to the Squid.... - Brian_BigSquidRC - 04-24-2006

So I'm a little slow. Tongue

lol...i was j/k..................what on road rc do you have? nitro? or electric?


Congrats to the Squid.... - Brian_BigSquidRC - 04-24-2006

2 Nitro.

I have a HPI RS4 with the drift kit, that I'm going to attempt to get running right, and try some drifting at LH when it's open, and I have a Duratrax Street Force which I have been happy with. Both have taken a beating as basher vehicles... I'm sure they couldn't compete, but I don't race anyway... just like to drive around.

I'm not sure how much onroad racing experience you have so I hope you don't take this the wrong way...

Anyway...If you are thinking of running "drift" at LH when they open the onroad track I can't imagine it would go over that well. The track is huge and drifting would only be really slow out there at that size of a track. Plus if you run a drift car on an open practice day I'd be afraid of getting hit by the 1/8 and 1/10 car running full bore into the corners totally opposite line of what a drifter would do.

It would be cool to see a lot of cars out there. But I would just be worried a drifting car my get nailed in the corners by a onroad car that doesn't realize you will be drifting into the corner until the last minute.

1/8th cars can hit serious speeds and it's scary when they hit something.
