RAYS Volk Racing TE37

RAYS Volk Racing CE28N from HPI with Advan Neova AD07 Tyres. This has to be the ultimate combo for JDM drift. They come with stickers too. Very cool. These are only +3 Offest for Hpi. Perfect for Yokomo. The Tyres also come with a bunch of stickers to slap all over your car. After a few sets you could almost cover a body.

Work Emotion XC-8

Work Emotion XC-8 from HPI with Toyo Proxes Tyres.

These are the mid offset 26mm version with +6mm offset. The tread doesn't last long on these but they come with cool sticker set. Available in wider offset also for 200mm body. These just fit inside the Yokomo fd.

ADVAN Racing RS

ADVAN Racing RS from Yokomo with ZeroOneR Tyres. Very scared of kerbing these. The spokes stick out a mile. I ran a whole session at kazama's indoor and they are still like new.

RAYS Volk Racing GT-V

RAYS Volk Racing CE28N

RAYS Volk Racing CE28N from Yokomo with ZeroOneR Hack Tyres. The paint is coming off these big time. I'll turn them clear between next tyre change.

Light Attack

It's been a while since I ran my active light kit. You can see under steering or any control action the kit activates into "Run" Mode
This will activate the random action of the lights. But after about 3~5 seconds, it returns to hazard mode. The main lights still alternate but the hazards flash only at standstill.
This is just in the period between Run and Hazard mode. Brake and Stops Flashing.
There are wires running everywhere under the body, but they can be kept mostly under control. And a single connection to install.
in action see previous post

Pretty Nuts

Ahh the final touches make all the difference

Heat Seeker


With new batteries I've been running longer so I picked up this heat sink. 1. because it was cool. and 2. beacuse it was about 500yen. Seems to work well.

It's from EXA RC - It's the Yeah Racing 540 Motor Heat Sink.

Shocking Experiences

I picked up these liquid filled shocks because the stock ones just bounce and dont dampen anything. They came with these blue driveshaft extensions that didn't fit until I'd filed them down to a mm of breaking.
Shocks are great!
