it looks, very untidy but thats because it rained so the chalk washed away, and im improvising, plus i needa sweep away the leaves, is their "bonus zones" in a real drift comp?

Not too bad Champ.. but you dont seem to turn in soon enough or throttle pulse to hold the slide...

Keep practicing as your doing pretty good for someone who is drifting a Buggy..

yeah ill work on that just as soon as i get some new shocks... i somehome snapped the ball connecter off it so ill buy shocks and the stuff i need to make it on-road, and i think i need a new steering sevo too but hey, the car was cheap so who am i too complain, even after making it alloy with steering servo and shocks it'll still be less than a tl01 brand new XD

PS: is buggy harder?

the ESC, Receiver, servo and motor yes. the car has to take a 540 motor though, TT01 does but others u will have to check. The wheels, not always, the hex has to be the same size, if it is then yes you can.
