anything with 4wd and put ABS or yokomo drift ring you're on the go
or check drccentral.com/forum for sure a lot of people will tell you what chassis to start with.

Bud you might have your car too low.Id suggest raising tehride height.
Also check out oneten.co.za fpr some tips and lots of pics and info.
If you need another chassis then get any shaft type and you dont have to buy new .You could pickup some nice 4wd cars 2nd hand.

I suggest you buy the Tamiya TA05 kit, just put on drift tires and drift!!!
With its great balance and great performance, this is 110% excellent for drifting... Trust me... I know... And give you additional tip on making it to drift with tight corners and with tight hair pins, get the center one way and practice with it and for sure you'll have a fun drifting!!! Yeah... hahaha
BTW, you're kit maybe too low for drifting... for you've said this is your on road kit (grip) so I guess it is lowered for optimum center of gravity... (am I right???)
Anyway, HTH's
