Anything cheeper then the Tamiya TT-01 isnt work buying. The tt-01 is a awesome drifter, and is a great deal. Anything cheeper is a POS.

The thing with the nascada is that it comes with a whack looking body, wheels and tires.
If drifting is about style, you have to change them.
Let's say you buy a new body, wheels and rims, add a few dollars more for paint, you end up spending close to the amount of the TT-01

RE: cheapo drifter
tt01 IS cheapest for drifting. check ebay. any 4WD touring car will drift. But, as I'm sure you know from dirt, it isn't cheap. It's not as expensive as racing, but it ain't cheap. good luck with all that.

I changed the esc, wheels, put abs tires, body and battery pack. Motor and everything else is stock. It comes with alloy shaft, bearings, alloy purple top plate and adjustable turnbuckles.
