Try a HPI Sprint 2 its belt, so its smooth, and if your using it on a wood floor it should be no problem!

As for tires the Stock Sprint 2 Drift Tires will work fine!

If there is any possiblility that you will drift outdoors, then you will want to go with ABS tires. Indoors, I am not sure.

As mentioned, any AWD car will be fine. TT-01, TC3 or TC4, Sprint2, RS4 ,etc....will all be fine. If you are on a budget, look for an RTR. Shop on eBay!!!

Again...if you dont get an RTR/KIT that comes with Drift Tires (ususally labeled with a "D", IE: Sprint2 Drift), you will need to purchase drift tires. Indoors, it sounds like the stockers on the Sprint2 Drift will be fine, but again, if you THINK you are going to go out doors (more fun), then just purchase the ABS tires @ http://sflrcdrift.com
