hi kevin

Make it 6s tho

[@Jeroen-Engelgeer]

Maybe you can start your own RC collection, it's a great hobby. 😇

[@WowoodogPlays]

Yea

[@samangulo5681]

Something i can play with outside and wouldn't mind passing the remote thanks Traxxas

[@tl924]

So good to see TA and Traxxas both releasing drift cars in the same month. RC drifting is coming back with a bang.

[@Dj_Not_Nice]

Nice! Now we need 4 tec competition to complete the trio

[@ObscureGarage.]

The fact this was shot at SuperG and they were probably the ones driving these and could hardly maintain smooth tandems shows that there’s some work to be done. This is going to give new people a bad impression on how a true drift chassis should feel and drive. 60° of angle is severely lacking when most chassis are easily achieving 75-80°+ out of the box. Just my immediate impressions and criticisms though.

[@deltazero3796]

Tl Dr: crap out from box?

[@OverBudgetRC]

Maybe they were going for that authentic Mustang lose control feeling

[@PigglyWigglyDeluxe]

This is so lazy. This car stinks

[@pawdaypay]

valid criticism though

[@MrFroggy29]

Traxxas haters on board 😣

[@RoadsideRC]

That is WILD!!! I will be interested to try it!

[@maximumrpm1868]

Same here

[@REPLAYRC]

Awesome! Keep making fun vehicles like these in the future. Traxxas should provide joy to its users. It's not about wanting an incredible vehicle. It just needs to be fun.

[@TeamRecklessCrew]

Test drove the 4-Tec Drift today and was really impressed with the performance and the handling. I'm a novice drifter and I'm sure many of the "Pros" here have the experiences and engineering background to let me know that there are other Drift car that's much better than Traxxas. But I can assure you that most are missing the point. Traxxas is a family oriented business that gets people out and play with RC's. Yes, there are really great RC's out there, but no company gets more people out to enjoy the hobby than Traxxas. I can see that more people will be visiting the local Drift tracks. For $329, it's a great way to get started on the hobby. Availability of the cars, parts and probably a whole lot of aftermarket products and accessories.

[@Father450X]

I love my 4tec drift! I only wish it had light buckets. It is a blast to drive and easy for beginners to catch on. Super impressive for Traxxas first drift car.

[@ElSob94803]

I always love a new Traxxas video! Well done, gentlemen 😊

[@Frankenslide]

60 degrees of angle is not enough. You guys should have redesigned the chassis tub and the entire front bulkhead to allow for at least 75-80 degrees. These cars will just get in the way of other drivers on the track please make revisions before release to solve this or at least develop a parts bin to upgrade the steering lock. This literally looks like you took a standard 4tec 2.0 and removed the driveshaft and added a touch more angle

[@PigglyWigglyDeluxe]

Another classic example of a Traxxas getting laughed off the race track

[@deltazero3796]

They won't listen anyway XD

[@xenonsaccord4447]

@@PigglyWigglyDeluxeYeah had that experience recently bringing my slash to a track to be the only one lol

[@MX304]

Exactly! This thing is a joke and will be so hard to drive that it will push away people that try it as a first drift car.

[@Luke-en2tk]

Is it made for prepped tracks though looks like it performs ok on unprepped tarmac/asphalt which is where most people will run/play with this. Surely this can only help grow the class maybe it could also have it's own class like they do with the Slash. I am the opposite of a TRX fan boy and the price of this is overpriced which is now just a standard TRX feature. If people want RC drifting to become more main stream then the snobbery needs to stop it's not meant to be a competition drift car, Traxxas don't make competition vehicles

[@HELLCATR3DEYE]

Looks epic as usual! Thanks for all the amazing RC cars you came out with!

[@PigglyWigglyDeluxe]

Nah, I’ll just a MST. Traxxas once again proving they are paying attention, but taking all the wrong notes.

[@KevinTalbotTV]

if you can get one. I've had one on order for about 6 months now

[@YesIgen]

@@KevinTalbotTV Did you ordered from asiatees? They have them in stock and in lot of different versions.

[@Luke-en2tk]

​@@KevinTalbotTVat present I would say Yokomo is the only drift manufacture with regular stock of cars and spares and even they aren't sold through many shops here in the UK that will change with Associated getting into the market though

[@DirtLineRc]

i like this comment

[@MZBallistic]

For sure the MST, Yokomo and Redcat are far superior RTR TRUE drift chassis for a few dollars more.

[@ziscojdm]

Even the ending was sick! Unfortunately rc drifting isnt big where im at so thankfully i wont be spending my money on this! 😁

[@brennanlindermuth4801]

Please make a Chevy ZL1 Comaro body for this or for a 3.0 4tec!!

[@calvinwolf7107]

Is there going to be a conversion kit/package sold so that people with an existing 4tec chassis like myself can convert them to RWD?

[@malkieboi]

Now this is unexpected 🎉 something new from traxxas I'm impressed

[@hobbykita5193]

Nice Traxxas drift ❤❤

[@lucasblanchard47]

This looks like a decent starter drift car. Might have to give one a try. I LOVE the orange body!

[@TastierBackInThe80s]

More than sixty Traxxas. Your first future revision.

[@MX304]

60 deg max steering angle? Did you even talk to anyone that drives modern 1/10 drift chassis? This thing would have been ok 10 years ago. It is not even close to being relevant now.

[@toddstephens2030]

Most beginner kits with a gyro and hobbywing bl60 sensored are cheaper. Throw in a base flysky to have endpoint and expos and you're in for a better time.

[@johnlopez4089]

That’s Rad! Makes me want to polish my garage floor 👍👍🔥🔥

[@ToxMod]

We need more summer type vehicles

[@zacharygriffin2041]

Light kit?

[@toolstechandtoys5910]

I think this is great for kids and beginners to the drift scene. Maybe down the line they can release a pro version that has upgrades. I’ll pick one up to use as an asphalt drifter.

[@Gateway_RC]

That's a good point, they would be good for that, but I don't know that I'd run one on a track with other cars, as far as first impressions go at least

[@toolstechandtoys5910]

*TRAXXAS: THE FUTURE IS BRUSHLESS.*

[@jucabala8634]

Good afternoon everybody!!! I'm from Brazil and I would like to know if anyone knows if the Traxxas Summit is no longer being manufactured and why???

[@ewwwick9818]

I would be interested in trying this out.

[@harveywallbangerracing1131]

I see the first issue......the motor that was put in this car. Why put a brushed motor into this car? It looks like a "new" specifically designed brushed motor for this car. Yea that is smart, make all of the other vehicles which use to run the 12T now have the new BL2 system, but we are going to make a new brushed for this drift car.

[@NathanStorer-RC]

Yeah, with them coming out with the BL-2S line, I'm truly surprised they went brushed with this.

[@taimaishu-nao1922]

Keeps the cost down for the consumer to buy the car. Would you honestly pay $400-$500 for a brushless RTR? I certainly wouldn’t, especially when I can build one with better electronics for less. Remember: Traxxas and their dealers need to turn profit on these. No good to anyone if these sit on a shelf unsold, no matter what they put inside.

[@harveywallbangerracing1131]

@taimaishu-nao1922 hahahahahaha good joke. This cost about the exact same as a MST RMX 2.5/3.0 which has 5x more adjustment and ability

[@cbossplayz3555]

Yeah I’ve never had good luck with traxxas brushed motors mabe because brushed is a smother motor than sensorless brushless motors and they did not have a sensor setup to install idk that’s just my 2 cents

[@stephenpheonix6549]

The best RTR Drift car hands down is the MST RMX 2.5. Nothing else drifts as well out of the box and they have so many upgrade options available! These will be good for the car park drift bashers only.

[@arty102]

you say that when the yd2 exists, ik the rmx is good but look at every podium or even comp, you see maybe 1 rmx, many yokomo, rdx and sharks

[@tylerseabook9423]

Yokomo is ten times better than the rmx

[@stephenpheonix6549]

@@arty102I’m talking RTR not race and competition spec. LOL

@@tylerseabook9423that’s what the guys at the track say until they can’t keep their drift line with my RMX LOL

[@x3noRok]

Elitest much, have u even driven one? I've driven the rmx 2.5 and drift cars that cost 4 times that and my 4tec drift is way more controlled and consistent right out of the box IMO. I have no idea why so many ppl are bashing this car, ya its a bit heavier but my only real complaint is that it didn't come with a brushless system.

[@rc4kicks]

Traxxas is the best!🔥👍🤘💪👌

[@superaries8622]

Nice looking body. I already have a normal 4tec but if you guys are going to be selling a clear body im might buy it and use it on my built drift car.

[@JulesParmentier-x3w]

Version brushless ?

[@BraxxJuventa]

Great car and even more awesome video. Thank you. 😁👍🏼

[@jel5880]

I get why theyd used the 4tec chassis but they should've just made a whole different chassis design instead and have its own series and call it the drift tec idk. It'd be so cool to see a proper traxxas drift car competing. I just think the 4tec was just the easiest and cheapest traxxas to go about it. Kinda of a bummer, yet still cool to see traxxas finally getting into the game.

[@joekugelman4196]

Here come all the negative comments!!!!🤦🏻‍♂️

[@taimaishu-nao1922]

The only negative comments come from people who think that Traxxas can’t do it or “aren’t welcome” in drift. Those who are actually open to Traxxas entering the ring, even if they have slight reservations about it, are not negative. To me, I welcome the news because it means more people will have access to try drifting. My only concern is just how well supported this entry will be and for how long. Will Traxxas stay the course or decide to pull the plug if sales numbers don’t meet or exceed expectations? How open are they going to be to criticism and how will they address any and all concerns by users of this new platform? Not all that comment are negative but that’s not to say negative comments don’t exist.

[@joekugelman4196]

@@taimaishu-nao1922I got your point and it’s a valid one but I am referring to the people that criticize Traxxas products…. If you don’t like them, fine move on! No hatred to the drifting community intended!

[@figuresix]

Yep because this is a thrown together parts car calling it a drift car, when its not. Nothing about this thing will make it on a real track. If ya wanna scoot around your parking lots spinning out every time ya turn, sure go for it.. But this is not a drift car. A tt-02 can drift better than this.

[@MR.TOYBOX]

I will have to grab one of these for sure. Just wish they had other body options.

[@figuresix]

Get a Redcat RDS or a MST RMX 2.5. Dont waste your money on this thing man. MST has lots of body options if thats your main deal. But your gonna not like driving this 4tec. Not enough steering to drift, electronics are put in wrong place, no gyro to adjust. Your gonna get frustrated with this thing. Even if ya put another 600 to 800 into this car it will never drive on the track. This is made for parking lots. I would love for more people to get into RC Drift, just hate how Traxxas tosses out some POS parts car and calls it a drift car.

[@1980VINZ]

🤣🤣I was thinking the same especially for the 90°’s

[@traxxasJohn]

For me i like the 4tec platform with the 3s velenium system. We road race and drift them on rubber tires with gearing to run close to 50 mph. So if it has plastic tires i am out. Real drifting is done on rubber tires and so should RC drifting in my opinion

[@tylerseabook9423]

That’s the dumbest thing I’ve read all day. From the tires 🤦‍♂️ to saying you drift the awd road platform 😂🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@rallykim7356]

yes!

[@TheImtoomuch]

The only fails are a brushed system for that price. That price is way too high. And there isn’t enough steering angle. Hopefully you’re working on an increased steering throw kit. Otherwise it looks great.

[@tylerseabook9423]

There is plenty of steering angle. Learn to drive better

Okey, it's cool that you have a drift car now but i'm really hoping car is suitable for rwd drifting. When looking turn angle i afraid it won't be, it's such a difficult and frustrating try to drift car what don't turn enough. But let's hope i'm wrong.

[@taimaishu-nao1922]

I’ll reserve my thoughts for when there’s a full deep dive by a dedicated RC drift channel. My initial thoughts are a bit “it’s like Traxxas are building their own RWD TT-02 competitor”. Honestly, I need to know a little more than what the video is showing. Yes, I have Google and could dissect the technical specs myself but based on what I’m seeing… it’s almost a desperate money grab from the stubborn American RC companies who’re losing sales of off-roaders. I also have a concern with support for this vehicle, seeing how that’s one of the biggest caveats with any RC but more prevalent with drift. On top of that, how open are you to criticism and willingness to listen to drifters who can be very demanding? If you’re serious about drifting, please don’t fail your buyers. Support them and they’ll support you for years.
