Hi SIRCC,
The thing is that i would like to know what a good set-up, so it could be a good "bas-setup" start-up setup for me.
But i would like to have a good and powerful set-up as a startup.
Regards,
Danny.

Hello there everyone,
Could the HPI Sprint 2 FLUX be or become a good drifting car [sm=confused.gif]
And if so, is there some mod that will need to be done to accomplish this.
Any other RTR drift car recommendation?

Virtually any RC car can drift (exception of nitro), just throw "ungrippy" tyres on and BAM you can drift. Also keep in mind POWER or TOP SPEED is NOT the aim in drifting!!!

Hello there everyone,
What is the type of motor that comes standard with the the RTR Street 2 Drift? Brushless?
And if not could i replace this with the Street 2 Flux ESC and Motor.
Or is there a better option out there?
Because i don’t really like to have a setup that uses a brush setup.
And also is there any mod. on the both S2D / S2F that is a good idea?
Any suggestion any comments, concerns are greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Danny

Hi everyone,
Hopefully the final question, is the FLUX BRUSHLESS SYSTEM #1151
a drop in replacement for the set-up in the Street 2 Drift?
If so, i would definably buy/ try this set-up.

Perhaps I should have worded it better. Nitro cars should'nt be drifted, as there is usually no load on the engine, causing it more stress run leaner and eventually wear out faster. BUT I do realise thats got more to do with your choice of tyre (ie PVC or an ordinary rubber tyre).

you gotta give nitro drifters their respect though im mean the people who can nitro drift hats off to them seriously you have to have a certain skill level of drifting before you can go nitro

You may want to stick with the brushed setup because it will be slower and easier to learn to drift on.
