Talking Finally....pics of my Skyline....

Well, here they are. The car just got painted yesterday, so it's not completed. The body is actually 1/9.9 scale (called "PURETEN"), and the chassis is 1/10th scale. The only problem is that the rear wheels sit a little too far forward. The only way to change that is to lengthen the chassis, but it's okay for right now.

Here ya go!

Even you should know that Drifting is not all about speed, it's about skill.

Mine drifts all too well. It goes sideways more than it goes straight. 2.6 hp OS nitro in a RS4 tends to do that.

Sure thing. Mine hasn't run in ages, maybe I should get it going and resolve my throttle linkage issues. The last time it ran, it went through the stock tires faster than it went through the tank of nitro. It's more of a conversation piece than anything, but it does haul a good amount of ass. Tony built it if that means anything.
