Default EDITED TITLE: Drifting on Foams

I had broken one of the wheels on my supra drifter, I wanted to get it slideways but didn't have anything that would stay together. So until I got my replacements in I decided to try a set of GRP Indigo 28mm Foams(I believe these are the hardest they make) that I had laying around. So I took it out and I fell in love with drifting like this, the foams provide enough grip at low speeds to keep it where I want it but when I jam the throttle and go WOT they slide perfectly, I'll try to get a video of me drifting it. The only problem I have with these is that i can't get any bling, so my exhaust pipe looks out of place without the bling wheels

Youre able to drift foam tires? On what kind of surface?

i've been out on tarmac with foams mainly, i'll get two vids soon, one for each of my main drift area's. the nice thing about my rental is the carpark is a ghostzone on the weekend so it's perfect for drifting

Doesn't it eat up the foams on tarmac?
