those chapalang ones can't control the speed and can't control the steering system properly...its fixed...so susah to control...

RM700 IMO,is pretty cheap

think of getting RC as an investment...

and no hard compound tyres are harder to drift with..
of course u can slide, but u won't be able to hold on to it long...
ABS or yokes are the best

The Ae86 (RED)(the first pics u posted) with the HPI chasis

Aiyo.. mini-Z so small can drift ar funny thing is the car is mini but the price isn't mini at all!

I'm not from MMU malacca but my sis is from there. Also Bear hill resident in Ixora. RC drifting eh take any 4wd rc oso can liao small big no difference. Getting TT-01 soon right after my SPM. Going for the Ferarri model and i'll add GT-wing to make it more Japanese Tuner like. Also i'll be airbrushing the polycarbonate cover into kandy blue (i hate Ferarri red - too high class for a drifting car)

weird eh, in the 1:1 scale, cars need to be FR to drift properly...but rc cars are all 4wd right? wonder how they really drift?....weight shifting?

I questioned that myself, but my theory is the lighter it is the more torgue you have to have. So since the 1/10 cars are very light, there's not enough weight just from gravity (add weights if you like, it still wont work!) and momentum to make for the front wheel to grip the surface.. in a way it is weight shifting la, but if I can recall if you have a fast motor, heavy front and softer tyres up front you can drift 2 wheel also.. I think..

but to avoid the rocket science, we just use all drift tyres, 4 wheel drive it and kao kao slide

chris, about the Mini-Z drifting, same thing as my opinion, I doubt there's enough weight..

guyz..wud jus like to knoe, i got a qd batt powered car bought some years back..isit possible to fit in d servo unit n d abs tyres?my car is d type wit fixed 2speed n fixed steering..interested in driftin it but kinda broke to spend fer a new car..

I'm not an expert on QD cars but I believe you can't change the internal parts like the motor and ESC, including servo, but the tyres can be changed. anyways, you can try to open up the shell to see if the internal parts are removable or not what.. but thats not the important thing, QD cars rear wheel driven right?

mine the car actually not mini.. juz the name mini only.. i can help u guys order kyosho cars if u want any... if can i try get catalog for u guys.. all drifting 1.. come with pvc tyres oledi.. my dad fren is dealer..

Nolar, I don't mean that small mar, I sqw the Mini-Z before, aout the size of my hand only but the price same as TT01 other Kyosho stuff can get also?

well i saw in TU , they have the evo and the s2000 from the fnf movies and a awd subaru imprezza mini z. iprices started from rm500 if i`m not mistaken

i feel pity for ur r/c sonic, the cover
