RC Drift Cars

RC drift cars: rear-drive cars built to slide and hold a drift.

An rc drift car is set up to break traction and slide through corners in a controlled drift, using hard drift tyres, drift-tuned suspension and usually a steering gyro. Choose by scale: 1:10 drift cars are the classic size for clubs and smooth tarmac, while 1:28, 1:43 and 1:76 micro drift cars fit a living room or a desk track. Rear-wheel drive (RWD) gives the most realistic drift and rewards practice; all-wheel drive is easier for beginners. Upgrade with 1:10 drift tyres, and if you are unsure about size, read our guide mini drift cars: which size is right for you. See other cars in RTR cars.

Frequent Questions & Answers
What is an RC drift car?

A car set up to slide rather than grip, using hard drift tyres and drift suspension. You control a continuous slide through corners.

Is drifting hard to learn?

It takes practice but is very rewarding. Start on a smooth surface, and many find drifting easier and more forgiving than flat-out racing.

Where can I drift?

On smooth surfaces: polished concrete, tiles, an indoor drift track or smooth tarmac. Drift tyres need a hard, even surface to slide.
