Re: RC car drifting
I believe RC Car Kings and Hub Hobby have the drift kits on the shelf. If you are looking online, there are many places you can score these kits from. Tamiya and HPI both sell drift syle kits you can pull from the box, ready to run, and slide to your hearts content.

Re: RC car drifting
I gave one to my nephew for x-mas (cheaper one), and then watched as he constantly crashed it into kitchen cabinets for a couple of hours

Re: RC car drifting
I have some gen1 xmods that I used to rip around in the house with and you could get "drift wheels" for them. They are hard plastic wheel and you had to have the awd kit to actually be able to drift with them. Kinda makes me wanna bust them out again since its so damn cold outside.

All they are is an AWD 1/10 scale electric car with special tires that are hard plastic like PVC and that's it. You don't need a super special drift car to do this.
