Since the Tailwhip/Recoil is discontinued, and parts are starting to get scarce, before they dry up, I decided better go ahead and start to make the Tailwhip more of a Recoil. While I'm waiting for my new tires to arrive, I realized, I never made the nigh time drift video I always meant to, so here it is.

Hey, good to see you Maxx.

Glad you liked it, because you know I'm not real big on the drifting thing. (Though I have come to enjoy it) So I was kind of catering to a different audience on this one, but if you like it, then I think I hit my mark.


There's no track, just a basketball court...
Just kidding. I heard that song Friday night, knew I had use it in a video. Shot this vid last night, Sunday, and decided to use that song. I didn't realize until the video was together, and I went to download the song, that it is called, "Hold The Line". How perfect it that?

yea great vid

I love drifting the rc cars...I guess its time to step it up in a bigger scale now

I'd say the taikwhip was good car, but they're discontinued, so never mind.

The number of accessories available for 1/10th drifters is nuts. You should get in while the getting is good.

hey! good to see you've caught the drifting bug dude. It's nice and all on an empty lot but it turns into a completely different beast once you get it on the track.

because screaming sideways around an otherwise difficult corner or sweeper will give you such a thrill.

I usually set out cones, but didn't bother for the video, because you can't see them, but I can see how even that is not the same, because you're drifting around a single point, and there's no walls to hold you in.

yeah, mini-z bar is awesome.
actually I meant drifting in the dark with leds being mostly the only source of light.
I couldn't do it.
I've seen some vid some place with mini-z race under black lights to simulate night racing, though.

Great video Dave, did you answer the phone? Or was that in the music?


Edit: Ok sorry about the smart-ass comment on the youtube...I just thought you needed a comment.

That was the music. Get it, "Hold the Line"? It ties in.

I'll take smart ass comments. I guess now I have to go see what you typed so I can make a smart ass comment back

Dude, are you that "literace" guy too, or is that someone else here? I'm not even sure how to respond to that one.

Nope, only one youtube ID. I just remembered how much that comment bugged you. I wasn't going to mention it since the youtube ID is totally different but then I realized without an explanation it might really annoy the hell out of you. And, I wouldn't want to do that to someone here...except maybe to Shaun.
