I honestly don't know anything about drift cars but I'm thinking about picking one of these up just to play around with. I know some are super serious about drifting but there isn't any around here so it would just be for fun. The price of this kit makes it very appealing for that purpose.

I've had a interest in RWD for sometime. And when I first read about the D4 interest increased. I've owned a D3 for 2 years with zero problem.
After asking the few drifters I talk to on another site, the general opinion is that RWD and pavement don't mix well. The videos I've seen were so edited to look real that it was hard to judge how it actually drove.
I spent most of a year running drift solo,no club around and the few that had tried drifting had lost interest.
What surface have you found that RWD works on?

RWD is a fantastic form of rc drift. very realistic in performance and set up. Check out the DLike videos on you tube and you will see that it can ashpelt can be just as good as carpet or poly concrete its all just a matter of opening up ones mind to set up concepts that are a bit foreign lol. Gyro usage is a must and with a bit of trigger time(oh dam i have to go drive my rc car for a couple hours to get used to it what a shame........
) then awesome full lock drifts can be easily attained 
As for this new chassis it really looks like it will be a winner. i have had a drive of another brands rear mounted rwd chassis and it was a nice stable platform. The D4 is incredibly well priced for anyone looking to enter this side of RC. Afer speaking to a couple of local guys who received their d4's and started construction they have both said the quality is far more superior than the d3 was.
If your thinking about getting into rc drift or going from 4wd to rwd then don't hesitate and get in there
