Review: Works well - Cool car
Review: Amazing - For the price, you simply cannot beat this as an entry point into RWD drifting. Unlike typical 4WD 'drift' toys that just power-slide, this has a legitimate gyro-stabilized RWD system that allows for realistic counter-steering. The pop-up headlights are a fantastic scale detail and can be controlled remotely. It's a 'ready-to-run' (RTR) kit that actually works out of the box, making it a blast for indoor sessions.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Definitely worth it.
*by K***Y on December 4, 2025*

It works well and is fun but it's hard to get the reverse driving to work. It works well a few minutes after I put a new battery in but if I turn it off the reverse stops working. Other than it's great and still worth it. The battery lasts longer than I thought it would, and the steering works well even though it's hard to keep it driving in a straight line. The design it cool and the body is also sturdier than I thought it would be, and I've crashed it a lot of times and it doesn't even scratch.
