Locking diffs for drifting ???
Should you lock the front and rear diffs on a nitro if you want to drift with it? Is it necassary and if so what is the best thing to use to lock the diffs?

Thanks man, I was reading some other threads and found some good options, i think I'm gonna try drifting without locking the diffs to see how it works out.

Her's my personal exp. I had locked the rear diff on my TT01D, before it was quite controlable and after it was controlable, but required a bit more skill to keep it sliding properly.
