Yes but since they are belt drive, they lag a little. Thats what I heard.

they drift fine. And the belt holds up pretty well from my experience. I have one. And I drift it.

ANY 4WD will drift.

That's correct. Just make sure you got the proper electronics and tires, such as a high turn motor for drift wheels or a low turn motor for tires.. Just make sure you have a ESC that can handle it. Mods wouldn't hurt either.. The most basic mod for drifting is full ball bearings if your car doesn't already have it.

I had a 4tec and i sold it as a drifter to one of my friends and he loves it, it runs good and drifters good. i also noticed that with a high turn motor the traxxas hard drag tires work really well also
