That's pretty kooky. I like it. The footage could have been edited better, though. Slowing it down a hair, and using 25fps versus 29.5 would have made a huge difference.

This music is the opening song for the D1 grand prix videos. Sung by 8 ball.

BTW what kind of RC car is it? Looks like a lot of fun.

That is a Yokomo, maybe MR4-TC or something. Although it is 4WD and the one in the video appears to be RWD. I'd like to know how that was done because that looks sick! lol

The front axle/differential is belt-driven from the motor mid-chassis. You can just take off the belt to go RWD temporarily. :)

oh yea! lol that happened to my Serpent one time when the belt snapped and I was sliding all over the place and doing donuts and stuff. I might do it on purpose this time though. hahaha ;)

I don't think that car knows how to go in a straight line.

Great find!
