Default Suspension setup for drifting?

Me and my friends have some Lightning EPXs. I needed advice on how setup the suspension for drifting. Does anyone have any tips? TIA

toe in in the rear camber - in rear lock rear diff with putty. stiff springs ziptie them down... toe in just a little in the front. not too much. if you can set your caster you want about 9* in rear and 3*in the front
