The first pinter I have is check out the drifting forums; more help there.

Second, I dont know much about tamiya, so is that a 4wd car? if so, it takes a mix of throttle/steering to keep a good drift. Just experiement a little and remember the sweet spot in the throttle/steering!

throttle control don't want to spin the tires too much. especially if your running those plastic drift tires.. its like driving on ice. its takes a bit of practice but after a few runs it'll start getting to you
