HPI Home movie contest...

Saw this online. Pretty cool, but I think there are definitely some cool drift videos that could have been up there too...

Upsidedown CS car cam

A friend at work had a small (Epic) digital lipstick camera. So I tried strapping it to my CS Driftmaster to see what it would look like. I originally planned to edit the video by flipping the image, but then, I noticed I don't know how to do that. Oh well, I will try again later with the camera mounted right-side up, but anyways here the 1st test...

Driftmaster Counter Steer Vid. (Gil)

Here's a video of one of my custom 40/10 front gear ratios on a fellow Team Arai member's Car, (Gil's DriftMaster.)
With only a few tuning sessions, the car is looking pretty good. Probably better then mine...(now only if I can find some time for some real Arai tuning too?)



Yay for the Team Arai Counter Steer Team...LOL!

RC Drift Tracks #3 Monster RC

Okay this track isn't in Japan, but it sure is a cool track that I would love to try. Monster RC in New Zealand. Maybe some more local can build one. If you do, let me know...

Wangan Midnight!

This preview looks so cool. I really want to see it when it comes out. Wangan Midnight is such a classic. It reminds me, I have a ABC Hobby S30 that I built a while back...

RC at the Sk8 Park

Saw this on youtube. Pretty cool RC at the skate park. Looks fun...

Yokomo D-Max?

While doing my Japanese RC web surfing, I found this blog that had some info on a front engine shaft drive drifter from Yokomo. Seems like it is kind of a hybrid of a Yokomo B-max AWD off road racer and a standard Yokomo Driftpackage. Not sure if it is a custom deal or maybe a sneak peek at what might be coming. But either way look pretty promising. Not sold on the saddle pack batteries, but the steering kind of looks like the old Rayspeed steering, which has a lot of lock. Check it out....

I hope they also come out with some over/underdrive options too!

Hot off the press, RC World Magazine feature on Countersteer

Check out what I just found on the Web, an update on countersteer gears in Japan. Printed in RC World, is some of the new upcoming gears on there way for shaft drives...
