New to Drifting

Subject: New to Drifting Mon Apr 01, 2013 10:24 pm

Hi Guys,

I'm Jay and new to the world of drifting but not on RC, I've been on the RC Hobby since i was 13 but mostly of aircrafts, like hellies and turbine jets i also got a TAMIYA TRF 417 that i used to bash-in with couple of buddies back in Valejo CA.

To cut my introduction short.

I've just recently received a a gift for my last birthday from a close friend from CA USA who visited, and i was shocked to see him pulling out a TAMIYA KIT (TT01E 58402) from his bulky luggage and to top it off there was a whole box of somehow upgrade kits when i had a close look it was a aluminum hop-up kit from Yeah Racing.

I've pretty much finished the build of the kit and throw in couple of drift tires on it and start practicing (still not good at it very happy

)

If its not too much to ask i would like to know where do you guys usually meet up and bash around in sideways?

I've also heard that there's a lot of Filipino guys that do RC drifting in here in DXB, which is good as almost all of my buddies back @ home are all from Phils. as wel.

I hope the hospitality is the same as back at home and maybe i could do learn from them as well.

Thanks and i hope to here from you guys soon!!!!! very happy
