i've driven RC for years and i'd love to be able to drift around corners like that.. tires just have so much hookup when they're new and you throw them out before they're too worn because you cant really get enough traction.

That's pretty wild.

I have been trying for a while to drift my rc car, now I know the trick PVC. I tried locking the diffs, messing with the shocks, nothing. The damm little thing has way too much grip.

If you look during a close up of the "tire" you can see the spec writing of the pipe, you can see that it was cut from a larger piece, and it just looks like pvc to me. I might be wrong, but I don't think so.
