Drift Tutorial
 

I hav played wit my se in my kitchen one day and found out how to drift. Either its drifting or its just sliding but the rear wheels were still going. Ok here's my specs.

NOS Purple Motor
Blue Gears
Aston Martin V12 Shell(I use this becuz its already lowered)
Performance Tires

1.Find an obstacle that u can drive around like a shoe or a box.

2.Go full speed.

3.When the car begins to slide, go at slo speed then go bak to full speed(proportional speed).Note that u dun use the brakes at all in this tutorial.

If u do a donut, it duznt count. And u dun really need a dusty floor or anything but u can't just slide on concrete or cement either. It also helps to have a lowered shell but its not required but the car may flip ovr due to gravity. But lowering suks the car to the ground so it cantt flip but I dunno if it apllies on a car wit such a small scale.(The weight is all wrong too)

Sounds like your just powersliding. Zips can't drift. Nice tut though. That's how I powerslide. I slide on hardwood floors. It doesn't really matter if the car is lowered or not. It doesn't weight enough to affect the cars COG.

I was trying something similar with my 86 (I've been wondering how to ever since I got the kit off of ebay) although I probably didn't have the right settings... my 85 has the nitro motor though so all it'd need is to swap in the blue gears and I could try it. (I hate having to swap motors because I'd have to deal with the clip and I always seem to mess up getting it to sit just right...) But right now it has the green gears. (You should hear the motor scream when you hit the gas, LOL.)

I'll get back to you and see how it went.
