    This company will sell you a pair of hard plastic covers for your rear wheels so you can go drifting with your FWD car.

    I'm sure they cost a bundle but I suppose if you're into drifting they might seem worth a go.

    First you have to fit them.

    Then off you go.

    Here's another example.

    I don't need any plastic covers to do this drifting thing.....just put your summer performance tires on the rear, run your winter or all seasons on the front and drift when the outside temperature is below zero.

    but RC cars are also RWD although most new nitro ones are 4WD. :arf:
