If you want a quick way to achieve a loose car, wrap one thickness of sticky tape around the tyre (shiny side out). It's no good for fast lap times, but a quick and easy way to try driving your car with very low grip and lots of wheelspin and drifting. Try it on one rear wheel first, then if you want to emulate even more slippery rally conditions, wrap both rear tyres... it's great for developing throttle control, and as the cars are sideways at much lower speeds, you get to see the action much clearer... When you are bored of it, just peel the tape off and you are back to normal... No cost, no faff, no mess, no tools required...

Hi Jim fantastic information regards rhys watsonia Victoria Australia
Interesting. I do use nailpolish, but never spun the wheels with a Dremel. Thanks for this idea.
Was looking for this, Ted E told me about this method
Very nice video content my friend.
Many clubs here in Europe don’t allow coatings on front tyres.
Some don't in my area as well, but quite a few do.
What I dont like about nail varnish is that eventually it unglues from the tyre and you have to do it again all over.
I would true them before and after the treatment !!!
There is no need to do that if you spin them with a Dremel.
Will this work on 1/64 scale tires. Front or back ? EAGLE RACEWAY.
Not sure of the need to do it in HO since the tires are already very hard
Thanks !
I learned something today 😎
Do you do any light sanding or truing after applying or just before ?
I only true before
@@norcalslotcarsceneandvinta3518 great , thanks ! Now I just have to ninja 🥷 my way into the wife's nail polish collection 👍
