just a little hobby ive been messing with while i get frustrated in the garage. Keeps me from throwing shit, lol  
anyone else have one? heres the best shots i have of mine right now. eventually i’ll have fully working light buckets and some other little additions. I have probably 15 sets of damn rims, but the ones shown have my best drift tires currently.

I put PVC over my TC3 tires a few years back.  
It was fun for a few hours.

Then I bought an 1/8th scale nitro buggy 😃

I bought some of those “tires” for my old ass Kyosho GP-10 but I haven’t put them on. Maybe this summer I’ll finally break it out.

I was doing it with a electric for a while then i sold that and got a gas car. But i blew the clutch and haven’t fixed it. Rubber tires drifting killed the tires im sure if i got some drift tires it would have been fine.

they say its easier to do with electric, but alot of people use gas…especially if you’re used to a gas car, it shouldn’t be an issue.

as for tires, i have a few sets of drift tires, and a few pvc setc. they’re completely different in handling, but both fun
