Mini Drifting?
 
OK, I plan to get an XMOD from radio shack whenever i get my next paycheck, and i was wondering...

if i get the undergraded motors and the all wheel drive kit, could these make a descent drifter?

thanks, HUMAN

yes it works, my friend uses it on hardwood floors Pergo flooring is the best.
You can rap electrical tape for crazy drifts

Read my post in the other section you asked this question and I explained what to do. Pretty much, don't waste your money on S2 Motors, or new tires. Just go with stock tires and tape around the wheels. Then you can experiment with scotch tape in the back, electrical tape in the front, and whatever you want. Hope that helps.

don't waste your time on an XMOD get yourself an M18 it is 100 for the chassis and like 70 for a decent radio and it will last alot longer

OK, i got the stage 2 motors (which ARE worth the money) and the all wheel drive kit, plus a light kit for fun:D, but any ways, i took the tires off and drove on bare rim.......this thing drifts like a dream, we have a smooth cement basement, and I had a blast for about an hour just drifting away. Not too good at drifting around things yet,and ended up stratching the body some, but hey, its my first night trying this, so i have time to get better:D
