DBD drift race on 8 Nov 09

The race organised byDB Drifter was awesome. The track was fantastic. The format was perfect.
Firstly I would like to thank all my friends from DB Drifter who organised this event.
The event started at around 10.30 am but unfortunately we can't finised the event on the same date due to the rainfall that made the track wet. We only had time to finished the 3 qualifying rounds and a few race for the top 16 drifter. So the race will continue on a later date.
So here are some pics I took during the race...its not a lot.
I will post the top 16 drifter that pass the qualifying round.

new location for the DBD race (8/11/09)

the location for the DBD race on the 8 of November has been changed.
NOw the new location is at(look at the map):-

Hpi Pro-D spec R vs Tamiya TA05 drift conversion kit

Which is a better chassis the Hpi Pro-D spec-R or Tamiya TA05 with drift conversion kit by Square?

here is the pics:-

this is the Hpi Pro D spec R...as you can see it's a shaft driven chassis with an engine mounted on the right front corner and the battery is placed across the chassis. we would say that the weight is pretty much balanced.


Tamiya TA05 with SQUARE drift conversion kit...
-to tell the truth i don't even know if this chassis already for sale...well ofcourse the Tamiya TA05 is already on sale but the drift conversion kit from square...is it already on the market out there?? some people say it is a work in progress but some say it is already out in the market. so talking about the chassis roughly...the engine is located in the middle front of the chassis, the battery is places across the chassis to make the weight more stable. Oh ya i almost forgot to mentioned that it is a belt driven chassis.


I never tested any of the two chassis...but from what i see from both of the picture, i would say that the Tamiya TA05 with the drift conversion kit has more balance weight distribution than the Hpi Pro-D spec R. Thats all i could conclude. i don't know hows the handling of either both chassis but i think they would have superb handling due to the balance weight distribution.

Amazing rc V12 engine

see this video about a massive v12 rc engine...image the power of that thing.
