RE: noobie
Hi there,
You should do a search on ebay for tamiya, or hpi. Any 4WD touring car will work just fine. Just look into getting a stock class 27Turn motor, and a decent e.s.c. I reccomend the HPI dash, they're affordable, and work perfect for a first drift car.

RE: noobie
In all honesty its all about preferance. What RCs interest you when it comes to a 4WD chasis? And do you know actually people with Drift RCs. I think the best way is to actually meet with RC Drifters and check out what and what not to buy. They can provide more advice easily, rather than coming here and waiting for a comment. Not to bash any of you guys. But in my opinion thats the best way he can go. Like if I told you that a Tamiya TT-01 or TL-01 was a good set up so what? you need to see what they actually can do. Because everyone has their own style and what they like is something you might now like. you know? But anyway. If you're uber new I would tell you to go and purchase a Yokomo Drift kit. Its the best thing if you have no idea what you really want. Peace

A decent 2 channel radio system would be a the airtronics blazer, decently priced, works excellent. [sm=thumbup.gif]

back to the dash, it is only 2 wd, you'd be much better off drifting something with 4 wd.
