Help me DRIFT
 
i got a rs4 pro 2. I got a 122t spur gear and i need a good drifting setup. I have a 13t motor and a ss5800 novak brushless system. I think they to powerful to drfit with. Wuts a good turn to drift with? What would be a good spur/pinion setup to drift?

Ouch, difficult to answer this one without much knowlege of the range of gearing on the Pro 2. A general area would be the low to mid range, since you're after quick responce time and not high speed. You can also change the profile on the ESC to emulate the stock class motor to be on the same level as most of the drifters, which is ideal.

No, spur gears are the big gear on the tranny. The pinion gear is the one on the motor's shaft.

As far as a recommendation, do you happen to have the manual that came with the Pro 2? Do you have a LHS? If neither of those, you can probably get an answer out of the guys in the on-road forum, since they're bound to have a Pro 2.

My answer stills holds relevance, drifting does not require special gearing to accomplish. Find out what the other Pro 2 owners use so you're in the ball park, then drop it 1-2 teeth.

Cssdev the tires that you are selling off of ebay what size wheels do they fit on? Becouse, I bought some off of you and i want to now if the wheels that I want will fit.
Thanks:D

The wheels on your car will work fine, any 52mm x 24/26mm wheels will work perfectly. I recommend using HPI Racing wheels, they're made out of sturdy material and last virturally forever.

Other shipments to CA have taken approximately 7 days transit time, due to customs.
