Any 1/10th Drift?
Hi,
I am new here and my first RC was a Losi 8ight 2.0 which was the best buggy for me  Now I am looking into 1/10 Scale On Road drifting. Does anyone know any tracks in the North West?

I'm near Liverpool. I do have a on road rc car (Tamiya TT-01). But IF I can find a good track in the North West, I am looking to upgrade it to a Yokomo one because they are very light and a lot of people use them. Do you drift indoors or outdoors?

Yeah that'll be cool. But I need to find something indoor because I don't want the tarmac to ruin the tyres and the chassis. That's what happened to my TT-01. Also, I'm not all into drifting. If I find a on road track for racing, I'll be interested too.

There is onroad (indoor carpet) clubs at Bolton and Cheadle.. a little bit of a drive from Liverpool.
There is also southport indoors which runs Onroad in the winter season. I dont know of any drift clubs though.

I use to do drift racing at Wrexham indoors on carpet and it was really good fun-not quite what drifting is actually about but it did draw a lot of racers,if you have a word with the southport lot I'm sure they would give it a go as all clubs could do with extra members.

Just had a quick word with a track in Blackpool and got more information about their track. I'll have a look in Southport

Really stuck on what car to choose! If there is a lot of drift action, I'll go for the Yokomo.. but if there are more race action, I'm getting the Xray 2012....

dont buy a car because they class it as a drifter, thats a load off poo, any 4wd tc car can drift,
main thing/ the only mod you realy need bar tyres is a spool/ lockable diff to put in the rear, car will drift with the standard diff but a spool makes it a lot more controlable. ive had loads of tc cars just for drifting and the top 3 have been mi3.5 cyclone t2 eu still have the t2 and iam swaping it into a racer over the drift off season, then just swap it back as needs be, can change it from a good setup racer to a good setup drifter in about 2 hrs or less

have a look at http://drccentral.com/forums
Most TC cars do well at drifting, the setup is the key. I'm running heaps of different cars, basically everything between a TA03F and the TB Evolution V MS for drifting
