Hey gang, Evol here with some “fresh from my bench” pics of the D9 Bulldog 1/10th drift chassis from Dean Tech . Somehow this thing has gone from this crazy idea to being in the “flesh” sitting on my bench in a matter of a few weeks. I’m a little gobsmacked over the whole deal. Special thanks to thebuildrc.com for [...]
What’s up Squidders? Evol here with a little bit of review action for you would-be drifters on a budget. Prior to being asked to take a look at this car I had never even heard of HSP. This end of the market was never one that attracted me when I was younger because I have always been a “buy it [...]
Whats up gang, Evol here back from a pretty crazy weekend. I’m from the Kansas City area and this weekend our boys in blue (That’s the Kansas City Royals) won the 2015 World Series. The celebration in Kansas City following the game was enormous. It completely shut down the city. The amazing part, no cars torched or buildings vandalized. Only [...]
Whats up gang, Evol here with another Drift Itch. Not a heck of a lot of news this week but I have a few updates if you have been following the Itch for a while. Weld Overdose posted on their Facebook feed recently that the formerly called “spaceship chassis” (or whatever it was) has officially been postponed, but it finally has [...]
Whats up drifters! Evol here again with another edition of Drift Itch and I’m pretty stoked to finally be writing about this car i’ve been obsessing over for the last few months. The Sakura D4 is finally in hand and it’s one of the most exciting platforms to come along in a while. While it borrows some key design elements [...]
Whats up gang, Evol here with my latest musings on RC Drift on the Big Squid of RC. So I know a lot of you look at RC drift and go, “man it looks cool, but I don’t wanna drop the cash to get into it”, or maybe its “My wife will kill me if I buy ANOTHER RC car” I [...]
What’s up gang, Evol here. Finally got my hands on the new Sakura D4. Thought I might show you guys some initial images and early thoughts of this highly anticipated drifter. Early observations are that while the box denotes both AWD and RWD versions all the parts needed to build either are not included. This feels like something that may [...]
Well its happened. The stars have aligned and I acknowledge beyond all doubt the RWD drift is here to stay. It’s easy to dismiss early signs of a shift in a movement when scrappy young companies like Max Speed Technology litter the ground with new RWD kits like heads lopped off in a Game of Thrones episode. Easy to dismiss [...]
Whats up Drifters! Evol here with a quick update on the RC Drift world. The 3 Racing Sakura D4 is finally here. This long awaited chassis recently started to make its way into the hands of customers all over the world. Hot on its heels 3Racing started to show off some of the bling and options that are on the way. [...]
The Yeah Racing Shock Gear aluminum dampers are a low cost suspension tuning set for your 1/10th scale drifter or touring car. Low cost doesn’t mean low quality however. Just looking at the packaging you can tell that they mean business. This sub 30 dollar set of shocks includes four anodized threaded aluminum dampers, five sets of springs in different [...]
So if you keep up on RC Drift at all you see some strange stuff floating around the internets. People doing all sorts of weird things that they swear is the hot setup. Even in the racing world every club has a mad scientist who is always doing something a little weird just to keep themselves interested. This thing that [...]
So when RC Mart asked me to take a look at their newest bit of kit how could I say no? The R31house GRK Global has been on my radar since word of its existence came out a few weeks ago. What was once a very rare and exclusive chassis is now going to be available to the masses since [...]
Two weekends ago Yatabe Arena in Japan hosted the 2015 1/10th Scale Worlds Warmup Race where some of the most talented RC racers in the world came together to prepare for the actual Worlds race this October. Why is this significant to a bunch of us non-racers who like to slide around corners? As some of you may already know [...]
Asiatees shot us over a note that they are accepting pre-orders for the highly anticipated Sakura D4. Along with it they shared a few more details like the car is to be sold in 2 versions (AWD and RWD) killing my assumptions that this will be a convertible kit. The RWD version will feature alloy extensions for the steering rack [...]
Hey gang Evol here again with some cool drift related products I spied on the internets this week. Firebrand RC is back this time with a scale highway barrier to dress up your track or photo diorama. These guardrail kits look very similar to the existing units on the market available from other manufacturers (which are cheaper) but I notice small [...]
