Well if you get all wheel drive and tape up all 4 tires you should do some great drifts with everything else stock. Putting tape only on the back tires just makes the car spin out. Never got one of those jada toys, I'm into r/c's that you can actualy tune.

make sure your bats are fresh and coat your tires in a layer of dust......then drive strait at full speed and turn to one side really fast and then to the other.......drift away! (this is the same technique as what i do with my bits...)

Do you use the AA or the AAA and how many of these arew in your setup meaning how many batt u have on the car... and I see that the AA packs much more power than the AAA and do they last 4X as much as they say they do???
