Some great carpet drifting there... shame about the camera work though....

The one with the lights on it really shows how much he's blipping the throttle, amazing control by all of them!

That was pretty impressive, but I hear that drifting with a miniz AWD is pretty easy, because they're such well made cars, unlike xmods, I'm not saying it doesn't take skill, but it's easier with a professional hobby grade car. Did anyone notice the Ford Focus rally car parked in the middle of the track? If that's a miniz, I want one, I saw one at Toys R Us, it looked cool but really low grade for RC, of course, what else would you find at Toys R Us, but I was suprised to find a Euro focus at Toys R Us, considering the fact that Rally gets no respect in the states.

Cool, I'd like to buy that. The description of the body doesn't match the picture, but it still sounds cool, it says it's blue with white stripes. The one I saw in the video look more like a current Focus Rally car, with the bright green and a blue stipe down the middle. I watched again and I see that they're both there, looking at the screen, this one is on the right and the modern Focus is on the left in the back. Cool, I want them both, I like em de foci.
