well i may not be able to buy a touring car right now but i cant wait to see how my slash does onroad after a little bit of modding. I just got done adding hose inside my shocks to lower it, spread the shocks out, and added spacers to stiffen up the suspension. it no TC but this this feels like it on rails next to what it was b4.

Lots of talk in that thread of taking nice TCs to drifters, but not the other way.

i thought "drift" cars had a different esc that kinda acted like a e-brake when you let off throttle or applied brakes, im probly wrong though lol

But needless to say, this is not what you want for TC. In the more reading I did last night. There is really not much difference between the TC and drift cars.

Although I'm all for a level playing field, having a spec class is just going to push so many people away.
If you do set this up then its just not gonna be run-what-you-brung and people will be put off by having to buy this and that to compete.
It appears that a lot of people are turning up and just want to race. Don't stop this
I would suggest you just limit the motor size, max 40C 2C battery and select a stock tire (which must be available for sale at the track)
This is meant to be about fun. Lets keep it that way
