Team Saiko - All Star Bash 2010

Went down at the 2010 Build The Track car show at Aloha Tower Market Place.

All Star Bash (ASB) is hosted by the guys and ladies at Team Saiko. A Tandem Drift comp and Body compitition. ASB is sponsored by RC Drift Park Yokohama, Vertex, HPI Racing, Yokomo, Hobbietat, hsm.com, On Point screen printing & designs, and Team Slideways.

Tandem Drift Winners - 1st place Marshun & 2nd place Curtis

The Tandem Drift comp had some of the sickest door-to-door bangers. Many fell victim to the a challenging track due to tight layout which made it very challenging and the variety of track surfaces. Regulation on tires made it a very challenging surface with the use of HPI T-Drifts only. D1 Grand Prix style judging was implemented and with that came some of the sickest passes and trials… The Tandem Drift Comp went to Marshun who was awarded an HPI Racing Cup Racer kit, a set of HPI T-Drifts, a set of HPI Works XSA rims, Vertex special edition decal set, Falken shirt & cap, and alum. adjustible body posts by RC Drift Park Yokohama. Second place went to Curtis winning a Falken Jada Toys Rig, cap, & shirt, a set of HPI Racing T-Drifts, & Works XSA rims, and a Vertex special edition decal set.

Body Comp - 1st/ Felgood, 2nd/Marshun, and 3rd/Randon

The Body Comp had some fierce compitition with lots of sick mods and schemes. There’s Roy’s Mad Mike Redbull/NFS Mazda RX8 replica, Chris’ sick BMW, Jay’s flaked out Chaser & smooth LS VIP, and whole lot of sick rides. 1st place went to Felgood with a AE86 Hachi Levin, 2nd place went to Marshun with a flaked out ventilated Lexus GS, and 3rd place went to Randon with his version of Drift Extreme S13.  All winners received a variety of prizes from all the sponsors and its too much to list.

There were also raffle prizes given out with a Associated TC4 for the main prize and that went out to Randon’s girl. Prize packs were handed out to lucky ones.

It was definitely one of the fun comps attended and great comps throughout. Congratulations to all the winners and special thanks to Team Saiko for a great event, Roy, Jason, Smokey, all the sponsors who made this comp all the more special, and to those I forgot to mention.

Going down June 19, 2010 at Aloha Tower Marketplace from 10am – 5pm.  Lots of amazing custom rides and products. There will be RC Racing & Drifting also. So check it out and support it.

It is with great regret that starting tonight the forum will be greatly reduced to just the popular threads for the time being.  Until its requested; only then we will consider to open it again.

We thank you for your understanding and support through the years.

Thank you.

Check out this very well executed Suzuki Swift with the Bikes that perfectly suits the car and its to scale with it. I love it when builders pay close attention to details. Nicely done and the graphics is very good. I think this is a Mini chassis like the Genetics, Tamiya M, Cupracers, etc…

For more info or pics of this event which was posted by the guys at www.rcdrift-fr.com click the site.

This is an aluminum brake caliper set for the hpi.racing E10 that goes very well with the stock E10 rotors or even better with Hot Racing’s vented aluminum custom brake rotors for the E10.  I saw this on ebay and you can get this at HotRacing’s site also.

This right here is another great product from Hot Racing as well. This is their own version of an aluminum steering linkage kit for the hpi.racing E10. If you own one you definitely know the how much slack the stock E10 steering has. With this hop-up it will minimize that problem and makes the kit looks great. If you haven’t already noticed that there already 4 different types of hop-up steering linkage kit options for the E10 (Yeah Racing, Atomic RC, hpi.racing, and now Hot Racing). I also saw this on ebay.com as well and you can also order it online at Hot Racing’s sitel.
