RC Drifters?

Guys, anyone out in Mililani / PC who are RC drifters? I know Barry guys go out in Town at Costco, but I'm looking for guys closer to Mililani.

http://www.towerhobbies.com/ kinda expensive tho.....

www.ebay.com i got mine here

i have a Kyosho Kx-one, was worth $600 but i paid $100 on ebay, it was like new. only thing it was already assembled... i like to do it myself. they do have both unassembled and assembled.

i went all out on that thing... i made my own exhaust and wired up leds. good fun. a very expensive hobby tho. it all stopped when the suby came in the family, hehe. im thinking of getting an sti body and painting it to match my car with some left over paint i had...

this was Waaay before the yokomo drift kits came out... after that i didnt care, i ran the car with that body, thats why in the first pic it looks all jacked up... i knew other people was gonna end up with 240 body as well, my car used to be unique.

Why's that? I loved my nitro, all I ever did was doughnuts and drifts, so much fun. I miss it, I'd rebuild it but it's got so many broken pieces. plus it's a little outdated.
