if hangbot can tune my cars for me
would gas r/c's be welcome or would it be too loud?

kinda loud, and will hurt the lighter/weaker elec cars. i.e. cracked parts.

if you got gas stuff, then you got almost half what you need. all you'll need is a elec chassis kit(comes w/ motor) + elec speed controller + battery and charger.

good to go. b

We sometimes do a little RC drift session at home in a 2-car garage using our Mirco RS4 cars. They're 1:18 scale so a 2-car garage is a decent sized track for them.

yeah we drift those too and might start up something soon at a central location(kakaako side). the best is heat shrink on the tires. we had a long run of drift sessions almost nightly of 5+ micros everytime.

it got so crazy that we started to do stupid things like hanging stuff from the track that we run into while racing and scubaru's much loved crossovers.
