    I got one because of this video and the drift tires! It's sooo much fun! One thing I've noticed is that if you set the front springs softer than the rear, the drifting becomes more predictable. Take out the spring spacers that live on top of the front springs. This promotes oversteer in real and rc cars. You'll find the car less likely to snap back out of a drift when the slip angle is small. There will be a really small amount of ground clearance but otherwise it makes sliding with those open diffs better

      Just got one and it is so much fun with the drift wheels. Thanks for the tip with the front suspension. I would also check how smooth the diffs are. My back one was very sticky, so took it apart and managed to get it smoother. Made it much more predictable and easier to control.

      Yeah… we have some weird laws over here that stop companies like this from branching out to other countries

    Never read the comments on one of your videos before. My god you have to put up with some grief. Well I enjoyed it. Any advice on servicing these out the box, greasing diffs etc?
