Drifting Trucks
 

HEy everyone, I'm new to drifting so I don't new much, but I was wondering if it is possible to drift truck?Thanks

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

possible sure. I wouldn't want to try it though. Two wheel drive will be a real handfull to handle.

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

try wetting the concrete the take off the front tires, wet it alot

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

is it 4wd, if so wet the concrete

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

This is off topic but what does "awaiting approval mean?

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

and what kinda trucks? monster trucks or stadiums?

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

thats it exactly its getting annoying and im starting not to like this place any more

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

and theyll probaly kick me off for saying that, there is no freedom here, thats why i go to racesauce.com all the freedom you want w/ no supid ppl watching every word you say

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

It is a handful to drift with an R/C RWD car, but somehow, in real life, it;s easier to drift a RWD car than a 4WD or the almost impossible FWD cars

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

i want to drift my Smartech buggy, it is 4WD but i heard tthat a RC drift cart must be FWD, is that true

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

I wanna start drifting with my RC18T (mini stadium truck) its 4WD:D!!! but I dont know if that is possible. I heard that to make drifting tires you can put duct tape over your foams or something like that. I haven't tried that but when i get into a drift I usually cant keep enough speed to get out of the corner. Usually to get a drift I start out going full speed ahead and tap the brakes (which are really just anti lock brakes, so the wheel won't lock up) and turn the wheel, and for a minute i'll get a good drift but it never holds for long. I'm using the pin tires that is came with but they are worn down to the point that they are smoother than my foams:eek:! Is there something that I'm doing wrong, or is it the tires? thanx for your help

hi, yer it is possible to drift a truck but you need to know wot you are doin takes alot of time to get the hang of it but once u know how to do it you will be wonting to do it all the time great fun:D

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

FWD drift is possible, but its very hard to do

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

if u wanna drift a truck get a touring car with a truck body on it thats an easy way to confuse people

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

i took some tyco rims from my lil sis bug, put them on my rc18t and it drift ike a pro

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

Just get a Traxxas Spirit if you want to drift a "truck". And what were you saying about FWD rcs? You mean RWD?

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

no fwd you can get fwd rc cars like that tamiya thing


Editted for language.

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

BaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaH k. first of all who ever said that u can drift a fwd RC ....ur on drugs...and who ever said that u can drift a RwD RC u are also on drugs .....its not the same as in real life ......u do 360'z all day if u try to drift a RWD RC and now as far as drifting a smartech buggy....get some large PVC to fit over ur stock rimms...and thats about all u can do ....a truck isnt really meant for drifting ...nor is any MT. and HPI nitro stage D tires work awsome on any nitro tourning car.

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

^^^ shut up u know nothing about drifting.... ok first technicly fwd is possible with a hand break......rwd on rc is possible but with load on a side. .... electic trucks can drift just the settings and the tires....fwd can also power slide.[sm=RAINFRO.gif]

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

ok well the point i was trying to make is that a "power slide"isnt much of a drift..... and *** are u talking about... fwd cannot drift. ur on drugs if u think a power slide is drifting.....meathead

OH YA and *** RC has a hand break.......

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

hey integra about your post in reply to me saying im talking crap about my dads subaru its an import and if you dont believe me its a wrx sti take a look at this site and tell me you dont get them fool

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

o really? rc's have hand brakes?? only the rear locks?? ok........ fwd can drift with the handbreak. its not a power slide. god you suck at life

^^ nice subaru man.. subaru rules. sti is never better then a evo

IM A MEAT-head
[sm=RAINFRO.gif] have fun with the emotion u might feel better

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

RC's don't have a hand brake, persay. When equipped with a front one-way, you get the e-brake EFFECT.

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

exactly no handbreak....just like i said....and also for racecarking123 so now ur daddy's subaru is from japan now eh...... ya right.....and P.S i never disputed the fact that it wasnt an import...of corse subaru'zz are an import they sure as hell aint amurrican.

ALSO A POWERSLIDE ISNT DRIFTING>>>>>look up the real meaning of a drift FOOL.

RE: Drifting Trucks
 

Powersliding actually is a form of drifting. A powerslide is when you break loose past the entrance of the turn, usually right after the apex. The same goes with power over drifting.
