ok.thanks man. can't wait to get drifting...wonder if there are any drifters in malacca....sigh...malacca is always behind other states...

No dude, Malacca's RC and real car drifting scene quite strong, infact in another forum there's even a clan called MLK-D and they usually drift at an apartment called Ixora or something, you should join them, and the TA03 seller is also in Malacca

is it? yea, but i'm not so sure if they are in a big group or not. i heard of them before...same uni as me i think

small only, about 4-5 members. I guess you're in MMU then, so you can easily join them for drifting already

what do you suggest for a newbie? a new tt01? or should i scout around for 2nd hand cars?

2nd hand TT01 just fine, but if a 2nd hand complex car like the ones I'm looking for you also might be trouble, since it might be so hopped up you don't know what the hell's going on

ha ha ...yea..seriously...all the jargons...i really don't understand until i get my hands on experience on it 1st

naka7a, I have a friend who's selling his ready to run TT01 with lots of extras, a basic controller and battery. about RM800, let me know if you're interested, and if it's out of your budget I can offer to buy off the hop up parts from the car to lower the final cost

the controller is a Sanwa Blazer, receiver and servo is included, Mabuchi sport tuned motor, battery is 3800mah, total hop up parts about RM150 so if you're interested you can get it all for RM650 only

My car problem is:-

1.) 1 of the tyres came out
2.) Remote Control missing
3.)Battery missing, its the Cad-NiCd something like that
4.) My car is full of dust, both inside and outside, so i thought of sending it to be "serviced"..

sonic_cd is using it...can ask him

Don't forget you need to buy the bearings, short springs and a better motor (at least sport tuned) alongside a battery and charger

all of those not included ?

edit: how much does a proper motor cost ?

the XB is meant to be a normal RC car.. it's not meant for drifting or touring, it's just meant for playing, so of course it's not necessary to throw all of those extras in. and only in the TT01D is the bearings included, a TT01R has a Tamiya GT motor but an XB or normal TT01 will carry a 35T Silvercan. Of course, paired with the right ESC this motor is better than a Mabuchi sport tuned, but the stock Tamiya ESC that comes with Tamiya cars doesn't do this. The 27T sport tuned motor would run you down about RM120 new, used RM50 I guess.
