u need to use slower shutter speed and pan the cars. can't tell if those cars are just sitting there or moving.

I need to fix my gas cars and drift it. Electric cars are too quiet.

Replicas are koo, love the stickers

Can you drift say a stock HPI RS4 or do you need to do suspension/diff mods? It seems when I drift my 1/10-scale Duratrax Max ST =P it has some crazy snap oversteer and its hard to keep a drift going.

Those do look like fun toys... but they are too expencive for me too. I have two 1/1 scale cars that take all my money

Once again, no love for the corolla coupe.

You can drift ANY 4WD electric/nitro (electric is preferable) as long as you slap some pvc/abs pipe over the rims.

And good luck drifting a 1/10 ST on-road but once you get them in the dirt, its extremely fun.

If you want videos go to www.rcdrift.com and click on the videos section or you can go to the forums video section..You'll have to register to visit the BB's but that takes about 2 minutes.

Nice pics The camo AE86 is pretty wicked looking too..

wow rc drifting is getting big.
and yes you can drift most any rc car. tape up or put pvc over the tires. adjust camber to about 4 deg in the front and 0 in the back.soft springs in front and hard ones at the back. well thats how i do it. you can just tape it up and slide but i find that adjusting the suspension will allow more control.

well for one thing nitro's have a higher center of gravity and are heavier and esiaer to spin out on and there is a high chance of over revving.on the other side electrics are lighter,lower,and have a better control when drifting.either one can drift just as well as the other,its just a matter of experience.if you are just startign out i sugesst electric.

What up Marny?! Haha, I can't believe you posted those pictures! Haha! This is "liberalswine".

The guys, including myself, in those pictures are all on this following community. Register for free and check out our upcoming events, vids, and pictures.

Here's my car with S15 body. Sorry for the height of the body, I was scraping because of tire wear.




Here's my old body (Imamura's FD). Some of you may have seen it in pictures in Super Street and some other magazines for the First official RC drift expo/competition held by Super Street, RC Driver, and Yokomo in Southern California
