anthony390

hey joel, i saw someone else with the same kind of body. i was wondering what kit it came from cause it looks like a hard shell and i wanted one. or did it just come from the MO4 kit? thanks.

2x american audio dti1.8's and some american audio mixer

not the best setup, but i needed something and they were going fairly cheap as a 2nd hand package

anthony390

haha still dope bruh! how long have you been scratching?

Serandin

Here's two drifters I did up for a competition last weekend.

WayzOfTheCore

i dont scratch, i just mix when im bored or rip tracks that i cant download or are only available in crap quality

anthony390

ahh i see. well back to drifting haha

streetracer745

being cash tight and trying to drift and race off-road, parts and tires get too expensive, so im trying to find ways to recycle old tires and make new ones out of them. has anyone ever tried simply turning old radials inside out and cutting out the sidewalls, then glueing on the old tires upside down? it would make the car sit lower, but the inside of tires is typically extremely slick, so it might work?

anthony390

hmmm using the underside of a tire. what purpose would you use it for? li just for fun on road gripping? it may work. give it a try. i have a few old ones as well and i might give it a try im guessing you would be using shoe goo to glue them on right?

streetracer745

yes most likely shoe goo or CA glue. and it would be for drifting not grip. with the undersides being so slick, it might work...

anthony390

being slick wont necessarily mean it will have less grip then the outerside. if anything i would think it would be more grippy cause i think its softer in the inside isnt? ill have to double check though. hmm well this is a project certainly to try

Hi Anthony,

Body is from a JADA toy rc car... with a lot of cutting, sanding, epoxy work to look like an Initial D car... it does not come with the M04 chassis.

Other bodies are bigger, such as ABC and Yokomo... for 1/10 touring.
