Which? Obnoxious members who don't bother looking past the ends of their noses? Or people who call them on it?
 
I have an xmod and its cool. But since its smaller the speed and just about everything else is scaled way up(i.e. the rc car may go about 20mph but thats like 500 scaled mph). Therefore drifting is also alot harder. Imagine pulling a drift at 300mph. I have seen rc drifting done but i'm no where near being good at rc drifting.

Probably the mods. Those guys can be real lamers sometimes.

Why would you want to drift an R/C? R/C racing is all about grip. I've spent hundreds of dollars to make my car grip.

But if you want to drift all you do is put super firm tires on a indoor carpet track. You'll drift all over the place.
 
I just hate it thought when I go to the track, spend 20 bucks for an all day, and get going. Then have someone slam into my car while there screwing around which breaks things or cracks my body. Do what you must just screw around when there aren't people racing.
 
The races I do, guys get pissed when you crash and bash so we run as clean as possible. Fixing your 300 dollar suspension setup really sucks if you get hit.
 
Well srings were 100, A-arms and linkage about another 100, oil and stuff about 50. so ok 250 bucks. But I'll get pictures when I get home.

Are there not rules for that sort of thing? In real world racing I believe there is a certain "who caused what damage" sort of thing. I'm sure it's more difficult to tell such activities in the R/C world, but surely there's something that can be done.
 
No I mean like when I go for open runs. There are rules but no one enforces them.
