well so far so good

beat another 2 tc3s, tl-01, tt-01, tc4,

i gotta go against my best bud in order to get into the finals....well if i do win against my bud

i either gotta go against a tl-01 or the mr4-tc (my brother!!!)

ill let you guys know how it goes

btw...its the tc3 that im using...got to raise up my pride

I don't even have my TC3 in one piece I have a one-way and a plastic diff (racing) and I've drifted with a one-way before and didn't like it. Plus I doubt the plastic diff halves would last very long with me drifting.
