It's not impossible to drift w/ 2wd just a lot harder than 4wd. Keep us posted on your progress. I would love to see some videos of a 2wd car being used as a drifter. I wouldn't mind getting the Tamiya Mini Cooper kit that is RWD and try to drift it. Just no funds right now and there are two other kits I want.

i cant do it:(, i get it sideways and when i counter steer it just pushes the front end and spins out, lol, i am looking at a tt-01 kit, but still deciding if i want to buy or not
