Default R/C Drifting Video!

http://www.muchosucko.com/video-rcdriftersversion3.html

That's one of the coolest videos I've seen in a while.. Probably because I used to have 10+ RC's.

Past tense, my friend. The last R/C car I built hasn't ran since '97. :*(

My roomie sent me a different RC drift video a few days ago. Makes me want to goto my parent's house, slam the buggy, gas her up and take it driftin. (rc buggy) I just have to find my controller... I dunno where I put it.

Cool video. Much more effort put into this one.

That is so cool, I wonder how long it takes for them to get the drifting thing down.

Ha! I didn't know you were into R/C as well Eldy. I use to race em myself.

Yup, that vid was one of my favorites. I just can't believe R/C caught up in this whole 'Drift' business too. You see the special drift tires they sell now? [bigeyes]

I haven't seen one in person. In the video they mention PVC tires... is it just plain PVC without a grippier tread? I had an old OS .12 engine and that would probably just sit there spinning the wheels if it were PVC on concrete.

Every asian has had at least one R/C car in their lifetime

Yes, some people stumbled across some PVC pipe for drifting, then Yokomo caught on and decided to make something more elegant. It is essentially a tire with a couple of very narrow tread bands on it (minimizing traction).

Check here for pics:
