September 2007 update
Well we have a big session of events coming up soon with AUTO SALON just around the corner and the NSW EP RC DRIFT TITLES closely following, it is most definitely going to test how good we rely are compared to the rest of Australia. For more information on these up coming events please see the events section on the forum. Well with mini chassis from ABC Hobby and Active Hobby making a big splash in the rc drift scene, Yokomo has decided to follow the trend and is going to release a 1/16th scale drift chassis. please visit www.genkidoridori.com for the latest updates on this product.
![]() A new style of drift tyre in its baby stages being Japan at the moment but apparently its very unique style gives allot more traction on the straight but still has the ability to hold an awesome drift. It will be very interesting to watch how they develop this tyre further.
![]() www5e.biglobe.ne.jp/taguchis/rc/home.htm Tamiya is finally releasing the long awaited Tamiya TRF 416 especially designed to run the ever growing popular brushless systems and with the spectacular performances of the previous chassis in TRF41 series the 416 is no doubt going to be a fantastic chassis in the race and drift scenes.
