| Hello my fellow kabayans ..... Im a Filipino RC enthusiast based here in Al Ain and currently own a on-road Nitro CD3 ...... i hear that there is a group of Pinoy Nitro enthusiasts here in Al Ain but i havent had the chance to hang-out with them ......
Ive been doing my research on Electric Drifting Cars and by my luck stumbled on your website ..... im thinking that electric drifting is to more of my taste now a days which in turn has lead me to look for a nice, respectable and easily upgradeable electric drift kit, i was wondering if anyone can give me suggestions and tips on what to get? where to get? and a budget on how much a complete set would cost me? ....
and maybe i can drive down all the way down to dubai just to watch and learn from you guys .....
any leads would be of great help
salamat |

| hi strawb!!! welcome to the site! as for your question, since your already in to rc, you can start with an intermediate as its a bit upgraded and better to drift. budget will run from 1.1k up. if you're going down to dubai this weekend, we'll have our drift on friday morning. (November 20) |

| Thanks again guys for the tips and the warm welcome ....
Maldito ..... I'll definitely try and check out your kits for sale .... I still don't know much about rc drifting and tips and advice on what to get would be greatly appreciated.
Orange alien ... I'm highly considering the TT-01R however I'm still not familiar about the pros and cons of the different kits ... Hpi? Tamiya? Yokomo? Please advice.

| go for an intermediate kit @ strawb! if you opt for a TT01 kit, sooner or later you'll be upgrading it and it will cost you more rather than buying an intermidiate kit right away  :santa: |
