TRF415 Drifting
 
Anyone drift one of these? Mine will be here in a couple of days, and I'm looking to drift this thing too. My previous cars had a lot of under steer with PVC.. They just wouldn't slide. So I'm hoping this car will slide well, anything I should look into (spring stiffness, height settings, camber/toe settings)?

Thanks guys!

don't know about the car it's self, but i drift my old yokomo SD SSG racing chassis.

minor toe in, on the front maybe 1-2 degrees, 0 camber (it won't help anway with plastic tires) the shocks however should be setup a little softer than the manual says to. also make sure you DO put on the anti-sway bar on the front.

0 camber, 0 toe on the rear. no anti-sway bar in the rear, stiff shocks in the rear, and lock the differential will blue tack / silly puddy. all you do is cram a little into the diff. (search and you will find threads on this)

hope that helps,
BV

I think the rear differential is solid stock.. Thanks for all that info BTW!
