different bodies dont make a difference performance wise m8 as you not hitting enough speed to take in aerodynamics etc
just down to each persons taste i suppose,there are fav bodies for drifting mostly jap models but its down to you and what u like the look off
something about the low bodies tho like 350z,supras etc does it for me [sm=thumbup.gif]

its not effective in RC just to make it looks right or not, get a JDM body man, like RX7 or S15 or Supra or even the Skyline. but whatever you like though. this is mine:

hold the f*** up how does muscle not look right drifting???? Muscle inveted going fast with rearwheel drive and high horsepower, smoking the tires as you go around a corner. Don't believe me go watch Dukes of Hazzard or sumtin.

I dont have anything against JDM, I run an Altezza and Skyline occassionally, but dont knock muscle cars because you're not into em and if i am correct there are both an 06 mustang gt and a 68 camaro on the pro drift circuit in addition to a viper, charger, and gto. How does muscle not look right drifting???? 500 N/A horsepower shredding the back treads off a car. It doesnt get anymore right!!!!

The ABC Hobbies Fairlady 280Z and the Protoform SRT-8 Charger are the two best bodies for drifting. With these bodies, the way the wind goes over the aerodynamic structure of the body makes it look much cooler during angled movement. Also, the amount of cool exhibited by these two bodies lowers your coefficent of drag by 72% making your coefficient of cool increase by 63%.








Naw. I'm just kidding. Whatever car you like in real life, try to find it in rc form, and then get it sliding.

Thats Just me I'm just not into muscle, I didn't say there was anything wrong with them. I'm into cars like: BMW, Volkswagon, Audi, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche.

Just get a body that looks right for you...
