I have to dissagree. Zips can't drift with any other mod but awd. Awd helps you drift because the front tires pull you through the drift, after the tires lose grip. With out the front wheels helping, you just get fishtales and doughnuts. At this scale, there isn't enough weight to be thrown around in a drift. All dual cells and less gripper tires will do is send you in spinouts.

Same with XMods, awd really helps you drift, but at 1/28 scale, it's easy enough to drift with out it.

Then again, no one has ever built an awd zipzap. And no one has ever drifted a zipzap either.
