well good luck with the drifting.
Those lexus'/also known as the toyota soarer. are good looking if not good cars to drift in, from what i hear.

I'd like to see more of them out there, but most people have to go with the older stuff for funding reasons. hehe.

Also, I'm sure that real drifting is quite a bit different from r/c drifting, but take as much of it as you can and apply it. Like try practicing usual things about acceleration, braking, etc.. that you probably do on the r/c and find where it applies to your drifting. You can learn a lot that way. And watch and try and copy what you see other drifters of a similar and higher level are doing, and apply those things to your driving. doing the constant application of what you see and thinking about it alot will help you to find out how to figure out the things for yourself and get your car moving how you want.
