dont get pvc, its too slippery
abs = better
what motor and battery are you getting?
hobbypeople is having a same aroud july 4th, if youve got one up there check it out
and for a drifter since you dont need power so much, try to get the highest Mah you are willing to buy. the hobbypeople magazine shows a 6c 4600mah battery for $44
more mah = more run time
more cells = more power
