hi i am new to r/c drifting, but i am interested in trying it out, so i was wondering if someone could tell me what would be a good car to start out with? should i go with electric? or nitro? any input will be appreciated thanks.

Search around a little in the forum. There is plenty of info.

I would go with electric cars.I don't trust nitro cars I think they could blow.Here's 1 of my favorites.

Make sure you look at the stickied topic, it will give you a lot of answers.

There are plenty of topics that are floating around please search before you post something up.

Start with the International Drift Standard Chassis. The Tamiya TT-01

I agree, I also Recommend Electric Over Nitro as to drift a Nitro you need Fuel and a Stack more room.

You can Drift an Electric on a School Standard Handball Court size of Concrete
