a little bit of negative camber on the tires, pvc or abs. it should work, seeing as the e-maxx is 4wd.

I saw someone selling pvc drift tires for maxx trucks. You can do it, you just need to experament a little. I think the pvc was for the 40 series wheels?

I couldnt find any onfo on drifing and emaxx, but i decided to give it a go anyway.

I bought some new savage wheels, and measured the diameter.
Although they list as being 83mm, the outermost part of plastic (the bead) is actually 90mm... and you can buy 90mm stormwater pipe fittings!
So, i picked up some 90mm stormwater pipe end caps, and we'll see how it goes

probally going to have to lower it, it's very top heavy so it may flip easy, but why not?

The E-maxx will Drift, So will an E-zilla and a Kyosho Twin Storm..

If its Electric, Has 4wd and PVC/ABS Under it, it will slide..

I am yet to see a Rock Crawler drift but I have seen many Monster Trucks and Buggies Slide..


Hell Dirt Drifting is Easy with an E-zilla
