I forgot to add, that I prefer rubbers over abs on slick garage surfaces (My garage is very slippery. Love drifting with rubbers there). ABS is what I use on street surfaces, except, it just keeps sliding way to much! How do you guys control it?

so prior to having the sushis, i just had self cut ABS pipe hotglued onto wheels.
the 'tires' stuck out a little less than 1/4" on each side of wheel.

i notice now, with the smaller tire, that my drifting seems harder to control.
meaning it spins out much much easier.
is that just because there is less tire surface sliding across the ground?

Happens to me also. And I think your theory is correct!
