Just get some rims, ABS pipe big enough to fit over them, and then cut the abs and slap them on the rims. Then just bolt the rims on the car and away you go. I can drift with the sticky rubber tires (HPI X-Pattern) with my Novak 3.5R in my car and a really low gear ratio

well theres alot a ways you could. you would just slam the brake and turn and hit the gas. or you could go like 3/4 throtle and let go, turn, and power over. becareful where you drive though, since your out of control sliding and learning you may find you self crashing. just get use to the steering and dont over steer or youll spin out, and dont under steer or you wont slide. you just need to play with it and find your sweet spot. also the material your driveing on can affect your drifting, maby mess with the chamber angle. about all i have too say

I have a hard time understanding why you're having trouble.My CT4S was sliding everywhere when I first got it.I Wouldnt go with the plastic tires on that car,It will just spin donuts every time.I think you should look at the settings on your carb and make shure that you have it tuned out all the way.

srry but I would say use treads. they are much more realistic. driftin isnt about how little grip you have, Its all in control baby.
