Grippy front tires?
If your racing on hard, smooth, flat floors, like indoor tiles or hardwood, then use the soft tread tires, found in the rubber tire uprgade kit. Make sur your floor is clean, and here's a quick solution:
take the tires off the wheels and get a bowl of hot water. Let your tires sit in the water for about 30 seconds, then take em out and dry them in a paper towel or regular towel, whatever. Bow drying is not recommended
put them back on, and see how they run. From the hot water, they should be a little softer and give you a grip on the road.
If you're going on the flat concrete, on the tennis court, or outdoors, go for the hard tires. Good luck!

scotch tape is a good idea. also you should try locking ur diff or just converting it into an lsd then you can pull off doughnuts like nothing. and stick with drift gears.

You mean like this? This car is AWD with soft rubber slicks. The key here is excessive power to the wheels, and a fairly slick surface.

Nope, it's a roller rink. I've got more footage, but I need to finish my other video before I can start editing down that stuff.
