Yes, sir! I have 3 mini Zs, a mini eRevo, and a savage (that's been moved to America, waiting for me there. :D) Right now I use my dad's Thunder Tiger for any nitro needs. :P

What have you got? I like your desk, particularly the car one. :)

thats awesome, i always wanted a miniz but just couldnt deal with their price compared to a normal 1/10 kit. I used to have a bunch of xmods cars, most were for parts for my fast one, would hit over 35 mph on a smooth street.
The red one is an HPI RS4-2 nitro, the other is a tamiya F104W pan car.

That Rubiks cube has not, and probably never will be solved by me, lol


I dunno about you, but I find puzzles utterly puzzling.


MXH: The only reason I have 3 mini Zs is because they stopped supplying them to Turkey, so I got 2 at discount. :D I honestly haven't even used them much, but I plan to. I've used my overland a lot. I have an AWD one, too. :D
Pan car. Sounds interesting! I think I want a large on-road next. Are you into off-roading at all? I wish we could bash together. :( I have no one except for my dad who's into RC.

im mostly an onroad type of guy. Ill tell you if you know where to look in america there are tons of offroad tracks. Hell, theres 4 less than 10 miles from my house. Only 1 onroad in 50 miles though and noone ever uses it.

Is controlled drifting hard to learn?

Depends on the car. On my nitro even pros have trouble. It just needs practice.

Drifting is not all that hard as long as you have enough horsepower and a RWD car. Upset the cars balance, apply counter steer, and feather the gas occasionally. Easy as pie. I did it in a Viper unintentionally :lol:

Indeed. But it would be better if I had one of those planes the Japanese used. That way if I DO crash (which is inevitable) I can just yell BANZAI!! !! !!
