Koguchi Power 180SX R/C Car

This was too cool not to post.













I'm always impressed by what these R/C builders can do. Is R/C drifting popular in the US? I'm curious as to whether there is a market for stuff like this.

Both of those bodies are quite basic actually.. Yokomo makes that koguchi 180 and there isnt really any custom work on that one. There are much more impressive rc bodies out there with many hours of work put into them that include engine bays, interiors etc.

Do you guys make your own aero kits or do they sell scale replicas of all this stuff? I'm amazed at how accurate these look compared to the actual cars.

Here's mine before putting any detail work in it.


Here's after detail work, and yes, those are real baby VS-KFs
