Looking at getting into drifting.

[Hydro-Tank]

Hey, I am looking at getting into drifting and want to know whats the best/cheapest car is to get. Thank you.

HPI has a nice selection of drifters for entry level drivers.(I think) lol

[Duuuuuuuude]

Any all wheel drive on-road car can drift. Find a cheap but solid used one and get to it.

My first was a used $50 TC3 I picked up from the lhs. My current one is an old Ofna onroad nitro that I bought for $30 and converted to electric.

2" pvc pipe for tires and you're good to go.

Gotta join in on the newb side, got a box stock second hand (a freebie!) TC3 and plan on using that. So far I've regeared it with a 16t pinion, replaced the Runner ESC with a Tazer 15t (it had been in my AX turned SCX-10 until I got a XL-5 for it), ditched the HiTec AM gear for Futaba/Novak synthisized FM gear (out of my Pede since that is now on a 2.4 Link system), Traxxas "Ralliestangdra" wheels and tires (which will get replaced with electrical taped TC street tires, then HPI Vintage wheels and drift tires), and a HPI Saleen SN95 Mustang body I got free from another friend for now (that will eventually be replaced by a black HPI AAR Cuda body, done Phantasm style).

Here's what I've gor so far.





How much drifting can I do with the stock ball diff? I've got the front kind of loose and the rear as tight as possible.

I tried it. It was boring. I know it takes some skill, to a point, but it was boring...........Sold all that crap...
