RE: t-spec
I have mine set up for carpet racing. To make it drift, all I do is raise the susp. alittle, and stick some ABS tires on. I use my practice body, becasue its already banged up

RE: t-spec
yeah man, mine drifts great, theres a thread a few ways down on the drifting page that shows all of the settings you need, for some reason mine doesnt have that good of a turning radius, but besides that, i love it, good quality, at a low price.

RE: t-spec
Just wondering here since Im a new owner of a t-spec, how many of you guys use the rear swaybar when drifting? Would it be any easier to drift without it? Right now Im using electrical tape over the stock tires because they wear too quickly on asphalt and I dont want to have to keep buying replacement tires so I just wrapped these about 3 times with electrical tape and its been working fine. Im just wondering if that swaybar is making a difference or not. Im going to have to make a gear cover for it soon as I get my rally tires. [>:]

REQUIRES: Radio: 2-channel with 1 Servo
Radio Batteries: (8) AA size
Speed Control: Electronic, of modelers choice
Motor: 550
Battery: 6-or 7-cell with standard connector Stick pack
Charger: AC/DC timed or peak for 6-cell battery
Body: 190mm On-Road Sedan
Paint: Polycarb Spray Paint
That's just to run the damn thing. Aside from that, if you want to drift, you'll need drifting tires(via. ABS pipe or PVC pipe or Company-made tires) and you'll need to lock the rear differential.
