Default RE: Drifting

HEY! alright finally another VoneS drifter! i've been drifting mine since six months ago. it's a good drifter if set up right. i have a few things i would sugest doing incase you are interested.

first use stock shocks but mount them in way that gives you the most ground clearance (i know it sounds silly but it really worked for me!) the suspension of the car will be softer and the drifts will be smoother as you have more control with the softer suspension.

second try to fine the right weight setup to counter balance the right side of the car. the batteries and reciever is alot of weight on one side. see if you can find some flat pieces of lead or copper and use double sided tape to stick it on to the left side of the car to balance the car.

these minor mods helped a great deal with drifting the car. it's been alot of fun so far. also keep in mind the temp. of the engine. i snapped the stock gs15 piston link and a T15 piston link already, but those were because of some really stupid misstakes that i made[:@].

any way, it's nice to know there's another fellow vones drifter out there good luck. if you need any help pm me and i'll try my best.
