I love F1 too, I have a Tamiya F201 which has fully independent pushrod suspension front and rear with slipper clutch ,4 wheel drive and ball diffs front and rear, it's powered by a mamba 7700 system on 2s1p 2300mAh A123 and it weighs 1308g with carbon chassis, lots of alloy and ballraces on everything, the suspension and steering was quite sloppy as it came but 2 packs of orange 'O'rings later its much more precise. It has MUCH more power than any tyres can cope with I use Tamiya type B tyres for drifting, and pit schmitsu (sp) soft tyres for grip style driving although its easy to drift with these too I try my hardest to refrain as it eats a set of these tyres in a run if it get too heavy on the throttle stick for a whole battery.
