    Eh, wasn't bad. (This coming from a guy who has a custom carbon fiber chassis, fluorine coated aluminum shocks, full ball bearings, a 30,000 RPM motor and PVC tires on his car)

    But anyways, pretty cool. Love the side action shots. I might have to try something like that with my car.

    Have you ever tried driving on a smoother surface? You get more grip which translates into better control which translate into longer drifts. I found that freshly sealed pavement works great. Polished concrete (if you can find it) is amazing. So smooth and you can hold drifts for pretty much indefinitely.

                          You don't have time to go to a hobby store and ask about engines, yet you have the time to sit down and construct a 1/10 RC mode :?: :?
