A little drifting with my Gen 1 car. Forgot to upload it. I have to get use to it again, really sucks getting use to the oh so sensitive mini z then going to this, then drifting my evo chassis cars, ughh gotta master them all. Hard to keep the technique for each one.

Pretty badass noob if I don't say so myself. LOL. I believe I need to "un"stock my drifter.

Nice job, I have never tried to drift any of my cars or really drive them either, but now I want a drifter so I guess I'm going to be building one soon. But great work on the video and like the car.

I agree w/ you. Haha, I haven't done any drifting in a while. Need new tires first.

no ya dont.... 'lectric tape will work just fine.... two layers on each tire with 4wd will work better than drift tires

I forgot about electric tape.. I got tired of RS drift tires. I want better looking rims while drifting. Electric, say hi to my stock tires. LOL. :thumleft:

Gonna get 8.5mm Atomic Drift Tires of eBay when I can. :bigwink:

Hey White,

Looks like you were having some difficulties holding the wide drifts there. For the Gen 1, was it just over steering too much on you? I keep watching for the spots where you spun out and couldn't tell if you were just trying to stay in the area while avoiding objects or if you were legit spinning out.

Some of it looks like it was holding the line and some last minute traction/oversteer kicked in. I'm just curious if that's a natural response from a Gen 1.

The black tape, usually about an inch 3/4 of an inch wide. You can say it's stretchy to a certain extent.
