I haven't seen one for the On-Road Touring section, and this section seems dead. So I'll try to keep it alive. I'll post pics later.

I like those rollcage window decals RPO. I actually thought it had a real rollcage for a second.
 
OMG! I need a Subaru body! LOL. Nice car RPO. Awesome MTX-4R 2000, did you get the engine to fit?
 
Hey Coby yeah I finally got it in - took me filing the !#*^ out of the radio plate and twisting the carb round on a slight angle and it was good - but after a strip down for a clean and getting it back in I stripped my spur gears as I didn't have the mesh quite right.... :( never do these things in a hurry huh (motor is running awesome though!).

more upgrades comming soon though the winter
 
Nice body. I have a M3 too, but it got ruined when I was painting something for my project, so I have to get a new body.
 
alx do you have traction problems with that engine? I have the same in my RS4 3 and can hardly hook up.
 
I do yes, haha but its so fun :p I've got some nice slicks and once they heat up i can get going pretty well
 
Alx, thats a very nice pipe on there. I have 1 with the manifold but no use for it, dont work on my left side exhaust, left side port engine on my NTC3. Thats also some cool looking fuel tube on there as well.

Ill post up some pics of my ride once my alloys come in and i install them.
 
old pics but it's pretty much the same...I haven't run it with the body except on the track.....It's getting a mamba Brushless in it this weekend....and I'm running the 4800 peak racing Lipo pack......freakin awsome drifter....

TC4 Factory Team with a Novak 4.5r brushless motor.

I raced this last season and plan on racing it this season before giving the TC5 a try.

I use Pro 53 magenta foams to race and it handles like it’s on rails. Unfortunately, due to my driving style and the low profile foams. I am lucky to get 2-3 5 minute races out of a set before they start to chunk.

My pics are before last race season.

I ended up making a few adjustments like moving the receiver on to the steering servo to lower the COG and shortening the motor wires to save weight.

The body if pretty tore up in the front now, but should make it awhile longer before replacement.

My TC4 Factory Team with Novak 4.5R Brushless. Pretty much a driveway ride. I have not ever raced it, only because the closest onroad track is a good 3 hours away. Right now just HPI rubber for bashing in the driveway. I have a few sets of Magenta foams just like Robmob if I ever make it to the track, as well as a Cadilac CTS body.

Rob if you come into a corner hot adn brake hard then turn hard they tend to catch the corners...if you have a lathe I've seen guys give the edges a lil more bevel to stop the chunking....I think you can only go so far before the wheels aren't legal width though....if you race at an anal track they might squawk about it....i drive it like I stole it too and wanted to try that tip but I just drift mine now...no need for cut foams anymore...HAAHAHA
 
Damn nice rides guys! I really wish my 2 last parts would come in so i can post mine up.
 
Nissan R34 Nizmo Body

These are pics of my latest body for my BV-1, this one I have built for drifting. It has very different airflow characteristics than std. Also I'm running PE tyres I make myself, they have a single 5mm glue strip in the middle at the front and 2 glue strips for the rear. Designed for drifting on medium concrete and bitumen.:)
