Status: offline 		Hey boyz and girlz, i have a Pro 4 sitting on my shelf collecting dust, i always wanted to convert it to a drfit car but never found setups.

I read that the Pro4 actually is a great car for drifting, i also have all the hpi hop ups for it so all i need is a good setup.

Thanks for looking

    -ABS Tires
    -Differential Tighten or Lock
    -Spring Tension Front/Rear Ratio
    -Performance Oriented Motor
    -Pinion/Spur Gear Ratio
    -Aluminum & Graphite Parts


Hope it helps

Status: offline 		1. What are ABS tyres ??

2. I have a spool and one way would the best setup be a front one way and a rear spool ?

3. Spring Tension means softer easier to drift + what do you normally run front softer for more steering control?

4. What motor do you suggest ?

5. What about rear and front toe what is the average you run ? stock runs with 3 degree toe in rear and 2.5 degree toe in front.

6. What about kickup ?
