Yokomo has finally started to release some products aimed at the RWD drifter. Not a heck of a lot of details but the fact that they acknowledge RWD exists is something right? They mention that you can use it in any of their cars but it is intended to RWD use. It features remote gain, left and right end points [...]

Whats up guys, Evol here with some product spotlight action for your drift news fix. Max Speed Technology is a respected leader in the RC Drift scene. Few companies are as committed to growing the drift segment and their designs have been original, innovative and of generally high quality. Thats why it was such a shock when they put the [...]
I know, I know, you’re probably scoffing at the title and just peeking in to see what meaningless babble I have for this week. To be honest I have not been babbling much at all. I had my wisdom teeth out recently and it is no joke. A week long Oxycodone bender with a lot of couch time playing video [...]
Hey gang Evol here with another edition of Drift Itch. This weeks issue is one I’ve eluded to in the past but I thought it best to get it all on the table on this controvertial and misunderstood issue that vexes the RC drift scene. If you read the title you know i’m speaking about the Gyro. No not the [...]
Hey gang welcome to the first full fledged (say that fast 3 times) Drift itch of 2016. Today on the plate is a subject i’ve debated even writing about for some time. My entire goal with this column is to try to attract new players into the RC Drift arena. So in doing I tend to stay out of the [...]
Ever notice that FireBrand RC puts out a lot of cool looking gear? Yes, we have too. Their latest is the Baller 2.0 XDR Kit. What comes in the kit? Lots of stuff actually. It comes with a body, a scale accessory kit, and a large decal sheet. Combined, these items can give your drift or touring car one heck [...]
Whats up drifters? Evol here in a bit of a reflective mood as the year 2015 winds to an end. It has been a very educational year for me as I tested some new waters in this RC drift columnist role for BigSquid. I’ve been helped along immensely by friends, colleagues and manufacturers who were willing to get behind me [...]
Hey gang, Evol here with another drift rig review and I’m pretty excited to get to test out what I consider to be one of the most unique things I’ve seen hit the RC industry in a long time. You’ve seen the D9 Bulldog pop up in BigSquids feed a few times before with a lot of “that looks neat” [...]
FireBrand is hard at it again with a new drift tire and wheel combo. The Hyrda XD is a 3mm offset drift tire combo with Blade ABS tires pre-glued so all you have to do is slap them on and go. Perfect for the drifter who doesn’t like to mount their own tires. The blade ABS drift tires feature a beveled [...]
As predicted the 3Racing Sakura D4 has become the hot new platform for all of the aftermarket companies. One promising new company I have been following just showed a shaft drive conversion for the RWD version of the car that looks very promising. Usukani burst on to the drift scene recently with mods for some of the popular MST drifters. Their [...]
So by now you guys know that I love RC Drift. I get all loopy and excited when I see shifts in the segment or innovations in the established platforms. It’s easy to forget when you’re so wrapped up in something that some people are still on the outside looking in wondering what it is that us drifters are all [...]
It’s been a little while since the drift scene has heard from Team Tetsujin. Usually with a strong online presence it’s been a little quiet up on the product front. Well that is no more because this popped up on their feed literally within minutes of writing this. Enter the Lycoris 12 wheel disk for the popular Super Rim series [...]
Whats up gang, Evol here with some more tidbits from the world of RC Drift. Max Speed Technology is rolling with the punches. A few days ago they released these renderings of their newest rear wheel drive. This design does’t have a name yet but i’m sure it will be RWFM-$$$ or something of the like. Seriously though there is nothing [...]
