    What do you guys use for tires for the drift cars? I've always wondered that. Is it PVC Pipe?

    you can use pvc
    but personally i use this plastic called abs
    home depot has it but you have to order it
    then there are these other ones called zero ones but they leave marks everywhere.

    I use to RC drift with a HPI nitro rs4 before I got my present job and got to busy and then got into real cars. I wish I wouldn't of sold it now.

    Heres the bodys I did



    And heres my video CLICK HERE

    I'm thinking after I get my new motor in my CRX I might get back into the RC drifting but not with a nitro. Fuel is way to costly. $20+ for a gallon

    I had to stop it got way to exspensive this is what it looked like when I sold it.

    And this is why I got a failsafe and then all the alluminum stuff.
    Hit the curv at full speed.
