Well let’s start this off with what I got. So far a stock MST RMX2.5 Amazon TE37+’s, and DS tires. I did get a new body. Aplastics BMW M2 F22, I also got a FlySky Noble NB4 which is pretty dope. I’m thinking about going with either Purple or similar color (matte green) as they have on the example body. I also have a brand new set of DS tires. I need to get some better rims. My buddy has some I like and might get (pictured with the clear body). I’m planning on getting a Hobbywing 120A ESC paired with a Suprass Hobby Rocket Motor 10.5T. Unsure on servo ATM. But yeah. That’s it. I’ll keep yall updated!

Oh also I completely forgot to mention I also ordered a full LED lighting kit and magnetic body mounts.
 
Sweet, looking forward to progress pics.
Will update as soon as I start this weekend
Welcome back. Sweet ride. Love the lego guy on the printer. May have to copy that. 🤣🤣
Thanks, yes I put him up there because he’s a construction worker and that printer always breaks lol
Also just so everyone is clear. I won’t hit any mailboxes. Well 1:1 atleast with this rig 🤣
 
Picked up these goodies from the LHS this morning.

Then I mocked up the wheels with the body
After that I painted it. And here’s how she’s sitting currently.
Also got this for it. Because why not. Some magnetic body mounts. And I’m going to print a driver seat for a half ish interior.

Good stuff!
 
How do you mount the body?
Is it with magnetic things? Or is it like a clipless system?
Magnetic posts. Get there here they are pretty impressive for $9 I can pickup the whole drift car by the body and it won’t fall off. Maybe if you shake it quite a bit.
 
Car looks great. Hopefully you don't get pulled over for no mirrors or wipers. 🤣
🤫 Who said I pull over?
I'm pretty sure he would be drifting into a mail box sooner or later.
You should get a can of compressed air like from big lots or costco. I used them all the time to clean off my cars.
Yeah yeah. Since yall keep giving me crap about it (I love it keep it going) ima print a 1/10 mailbox and hit it with every working RC I have. Aka probably 2-3 lol
Also I just use the air compressor to blow the rigs off. Very very very slim chance I ever do but whatever
