Sweet now to set up my Nitro R/C supercar for doriftosan action.
Yes would have been heaps of practice
Their not cheap hey
mine has'nt even raced yet and it cost about 1G so far and still needs a new engine and full rebuild after some use at an old vellodrome.

i think one of the coolest bits was how they had a camera on one of the cars, just gives an added perspective of it...

Saw a simillar vid at WOW in Toowoomba but no one working there could tell me who did it or where to get it. The guys with the radio gear do a fantastic job of controling those things. Lets see if the F6 Drift car can do it as well as them :

All you need is a cheap electric car (Tamiya etc) say around $150-$200 and some drift tyres (~$60). Alternatively you can wrap some tape (eg. lecco tape) around some old tyres.
