Hey gang, Evol here for my latest bit of rambling related to the RC Drift scene. This edition of the Itch is going to be part rant and part public service announcement. Now don’t take me wrong here, I know RC is all about fun, I haven’t lost sight of that, but I’m also a scaler. I like scale crawlers, [...]
Hey gang, Evol here again with an update on my scale drift track build. If you remember last time around we focused on the easy to get and lower cost options for building the basis of your drift track. You don’t? Well check out volume 1 Here. This time around we are going to look at couple of options for [...]
Fresh from Japan, Team Tetsujin is at it again with their latest release for their Super Rim line of adjustable offset wheels. The Jasmine wheel disk is their latest design to go with their popular Super Rim wheels for your RC drift car. The Jasmine brings with it a host of new colors including the long awaited chrome, metallic and matte [...]
I think that the one thing that has grabbed and held me with RC drifting is the scale aspect of it. More and more you see scale drifters decked out with intercoolers, mirrors, wipers, lights, and it doesn’t stop with the cars. The tracks some of these clubs are constructing to drift on are beyond real. Rumble strips, guard rails, [...]
From: Fire Brand RC Direct Link: Firebrand RC Baller body Fire Brand RC is a new name on the market that specializes in RC accessories for the Basher/Scaler/Drifter crowd. They recently popped up on the radar at iHobby last year and sent us some product to check out. So far we have reviewed their Icestar XD drift wheel and tire combo [...]
FXXD IFS what?? The name is a bit of a jumble, but I can assure the company isn’t. MST has been putting out some top shelf kits in recent years, and they do it at a pace that will make your head spin. The FXXD VIP drift car has been a very popular, but expensive rear wheel drive option from [...]
I guess I can go ahead and put my foot in my mouth. I can’t count how many times I’ve said RC Drift is growing and it’s niche and it’s underground. You could really get away with saying that, until a YouTuber called Drift 44 and automotive manufacturer Lexus put it in front of the eyes of millions of viewers [...]
From:Fire Brand RC Direct Link: ICESTAR XD Fire Brand RC is a new name on the market that specializes in RC accessories for the Basher/Scaler/Drifter crowd. The first thing that struck me about their products is how well everything is packaged and presented. These guys aren’t some fly by night here today – gone tomorrow type of operation, It’s clear from looking [...]
Recently we posted information about the Team Associated Lexus RC F, and today we see a video collaboration between Lexus and drift guru Drift44. It’s a nice video with serious drift precision shots. I’m sure the outtake video will probably follow shortly showing the dozens of attempts to get it all right, but it’s still cool. Check it out below.
Previously released with high grip tires, Team Associated has announced a Drift Version of their Apex Scion Racing tC. The new slick drift tires allow for long corner drifts and lots of tire burning action. A Reedy 3300kV brushless motor provides the power, while an XP 2.4GHz radio system with digital metal gear steering servo provides the control. The street [...]
OK kids gather round cuz it’s story time. Back in the early days when RC drift was in its infancy, guys were cutting down ABS pipe and using them for tires on converted touring car chassis to get their slide on. I myself started on a RC10 TC3. Man it was a great car, super tough and with a front [...]
Hey all my RC drifting addicts, Evol here checking in again with some cool new drift gear that I think warrants a closer look. In the somewhat underground (But always growing) world of RC Drift there is a name pretty common to our sliding brethren, yet will probably be completely unknown by your average RC basher in the United States. Team [...]

Hey gang, Evol here, you may (or more likely not) know me from my YouTube channel “Evol Villain RC” or from the podcast I co-host “RC Car Cast”. “Blah blah” you say, I know, anyway what I’m getting at is my life pretty well revolves around RC. I have been in the hobby for decades and now I’ve teamed up [...]
Do you want the scale realism of exhaust smoke emitting from your rc car? If so, Killerbody RC has a new Smoky Exhaust Pipe with LED on the way. With this set-up your car (or truck) can emit smoke just like a full sized car, while the LED light makes the exhaust pipe look like it is getting hot. The [...]
