r/c drifting in fresno?

hello guys. im wondering if there is any places in fresno or close by for r/c drifting. i got into it kinda hard over here and im wondering if i can continue over there or if its going to sit on the shelf till i go back to japan lol.

chassis is the yokomo drift package type c with the ssg conversion. body is a silvia s13. i also have other bodies including: jzx90 mark2, jzx100 chaser, jzx100 mark2, jzz30 soarer, and a luxus gs350. i plan on building a couple of more before i leave becuase they make nice shelf peices lmao.

heres a couple of pictures of my current setup.



heres a couple of videos from the local track i go to. sorry about the crashing. its hard to control the car when its got a big ass gopro hanging off of it lol.

Nice..i actually bought one to learn how to but damn its hard..any tips and trickd to make it perfect?

i dont really know any tricks except for keep practicing. im not that good either but im alot better then i was a year ago when i started lmao. what works for me though is toe out front and toe in rear. more camber up tront then in the rear, but it all depends on you.

hahahahaah ive never seen this so bad ass lol looks like a lot of fun are those little things expensive or no?

the basic ready to run kit from yokomo is around 200 dollars i think. tamiya has a cheaper ready to run kit, i think its under a hundred.

be careful though, it can get really expansive fast once you start adding hop ups. all my r/c stuff is over a grand. crazy huh? lol

Hobby town has free races where people go and drift on fridays but im always down to hang and drift with ya

Does hobby town have an actual track or is it just an open area? And hells yeah I'll r/c drift with you, its good to know I might be able to continue my other hobby in the states lol. What's your setup if you don't mind me asking?

They have a big track in the back that just has lines on the ground. Well I just started so I have the HPI Ready to Run E10 AE86. I order a 15T motor just waiting on that and some adjustable springs
