Looking to buy 2 drifters, electric.
Looking for 2 electric drifters. 200 to 300$ range each. Looking at the HPI Spirit 2 or the Losi drifter. Can anyone recommend either?
Don'mind kits but probably will go with RTR's. Thanks

Thanks.... Was leaning toward the Sprint 2. Could not find any pictures of the Losi chassis. Just hype on their site with headlights and stuff.

if you want a good car for 170 bucks get the EP10 by HPI then youll have extra money for hop ups or a brushless motor im buying a car to the EP 10 is my choice but my price range is lower

Had a Sprint II with Mamba system. Street tires or drift tires, she was fun. I'd get the Sprint. Also had a TT-01, but didnt hold up well to brushless. But brushed drifting she'll be great.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.
We did get two HPI Sprint 2's. Here's a shot of them painted and decaled out. They both do well but the stock drifter tires they came with just had too much traction so went with some ABS sushi and some PVC and they work great now.

RE: Looking to buy 2 drifters, electric.
ok, let me restate what i said about the e-10. and it's not what someone has told me. like you, i have drifted almost everychassis out there and have seen almost all the upgrades available for these cars. e-10 does not have many upgrades available yet. with the cars that are out there and the tuneability available for them right, it put the e-10 at a very entry level car
