1rst time buyer, looking to drift

[Passivality]

I'm looking to get into the RC cars and what not and i love drifting, so i wanted to make a RC drifter, im not sure if this is possible because to be honest, i dont know SH*T about rc cars, What would your guys recomendations be? How are the XMODS that i see around and what not?

well first i would do a search instead of posting, but anyway-

xmdos are pretty bad i f you wanna drift, your going to have to spend atleast 100$ if you want a decent car for drifting. TL01 from tamiya is good and you can buy a used one thats already biult fo around 75-100$, or the XB pro series from tamiya is also good, thats around 150$ i think, or the hpi sprint, or hpi sprint 2, i tihnk the price of the first model is lower now because of the second version out, but last time i checked those were about 200$, and remeber all these can be used and still worked, check ebay for 4wd, electric touring cars.

Xmods = Shit, Get some money saved and get a Name Brand RC. Also, check out the FAQ posted at the top of this forum, 90% of your questions are answered there.

Good choice, the TL and TT series is pretty quick box stock, you should have fun building it.

I just got a Nitro TC3+ from team associated, took it out for the first time today following engine break in and this thing drifts like you wouldn't believe!!!

I was doing 360 degrees with about a 15 foot radius with no steering input, the thing just hung there and kept on sliding once you started it going, awesome, can't reccomend it enough!
