Default drifting my nitro rustler

hey everyone. i wanna learn how to drift. i know how to drift my xmod, and as i am heavily into motorsports, i know the different techniques used by d1 and such like keiichi. what i want to know is this. how can i drift my nitro rustler? i have the suspension lowered as low as it will go, but when ever i attempt to break it loose using a feint technique, it just either spins around or flips. what tires and what suspension settings should i be using? i understand stiff in rear, soft in front, but im not sure thats the same for my nrustler. any help would be greatly appreciated!

i'm sorry to saw but you can't drift with a RWD car. i try to drift with my XTM Excellorater and yeah i mean i can get it mildly drift without spinning, the cheapest way to do it is to get some electrical tape and rap the tires thats how i do it with my RWD. But the best thing and easiest thing is to get a 4WD.

Myself and my roommate have also tried it with everything from Sportmaxxes to RC10B4's with 10 turn motors and XXX NT's Drakes. It just doesn't want to do it without 4wd.
