Some pictures from the modeling fair 2012. Yesterday we were giving a little driftshow at the tamiya booth. Here are some impressions from that.






















PS: if you want pictures from other modelmaking booths (not rc drift related) please let me know in the comments ;)

recycled AE86

 

Pictures of my old HPI AE86 body. Now in black instead of neon-orange :) Took these pictures on our Sunday-driftmeet at the track.

update #1

So I finally got the first package with my new parts.
Including:
*New belt for my CS Setup (156T instead of 158 default on rear)
*New Square Tamiya TA05-VDF Tensioner Flange Bearings. I definately like them already, even though my new belt is tighter, it still helps a lot to hold the belt in place. Results in a nicer and smoother drive - For ~7€ definately worth it! ATTENTION: it's just for ONE tensioner. If you want both tensioners with the square bearings, you need to order 2! But I just put them on the first tensioner (near the middle).

AE86 rear spoiler

Finished my rear spoiler for my AE86. My Trueno will get some custom decals too, but they are still in production/ mail. Now I just need a warm day to paint my AE86 body :)
