is it crazy to obsess over an inanimate plastic object with four wheels?

i will leave that question unanswered for now.

here's introducing my new love - my very own r/c Xanavi Nismo Z. painstakingly assembled from scratch and painted aluminium pink.

unfortunately, this being my very first r/c kit, it is far from perfect... made a few mistakes with the cutting and the paintwork. but still, i feel a great sense of accomplishment.

picture was snapped soon after completion last week in a friend's room. taken on my handphone so forgive the low res.

some technical specs:

Chassis: Tamiya TT-01
Stock Motor & Parts
Shell: Xanavi Nismo Z

i will post more pics with the show-off tyres and rims instead of the ones that i use to practise drifting with. but in the meantime, its off to my very first (mini) drift meet tmr!

r/c gods please keep me from crashing too much and from damaging my shell.
