TESTED! RC Drift Tires for P-Tile. ReveD | Yokomo | DS Racing | MST

2 роки тому

A full tire test of RC drift tires!
I have been wanting to do this for awhile.
I took my Sakura D5s RWD rc drift car (www.ebay.com/itm/133839149294...) to our new local track at Music City RC. I brought with me a whole slew of new drift tires:
- ReveD AS-01 tires: www.avantlink.com/click.php?t...
- Yokomo DRA: amzn.to/3cgkjbE
- Yokomo DRC: amzn.to/3dUs0Vx
- MST CS-R silver / gold / green: www.avantlink.com/click.php?t...
- DS Racing Finix Series LF-3: www.avantlink.com/click.php?t...
- DS Racing RWD-FF-Zero Mark II: www.avantlink.com/click.php?t...
I put all of these tires to test on the p-tile used at the track.
It was really interesting to see the difference in how each tire performed.
I drifted a circle to gauge angle and speed. Then, I did an acceleration test to see the traction level of each tire. Lastly, I tested each tires side-bite on a decreasing radius drift test.
Check the full video to see the results!

We are drifting on p tile as well and currently we are searching for a new standard tire for the track since our last track spec tire was discontinued. So this was actually very helpful. Our season is starting soon so I'll get onto testing with the guys from this short list so we can decide on new track spec tire. Thank you!

@RoadsideRC 2 роки тому

Glad it was helpful. Since this video, some folks locally prefer the Yokomo DRC over the DRA. I like the side-bite the DRA gives you. They like the never-ending slide of the DRC.

@LegendsPizzaCo 18 днів тому

I called my locl track today to see what they run. The guy on the phone wasn't very helpful. He mentioned that they love Double 7s tires but I couldn't find any info on them. Then he said the DRC is popular too but their track isn't carpet and the DRC says it's for carpet. Does that not matter? Do people run carpet tires on p tile? I cant decide what tires to run lol

@5kwid43 2 роки тому

Great video as always, interesting to see documented time for speed! For the tire side wall, the square-ish side wall tires give a more cut/bite into the surface while the round side wall tires keep a constant contact when camber is changed. Which the square-ish ones give a more aggressive feel and the round ones give a smoother feel. So this will be noticeable on chassis with mid-high caster/kpi/trailing front end setups or/and rear setup that rolls a lot via hcg/low roll center/etc, as these are tunes where decent amount of camber change is forced. These are just personal and local people at the track findings, so could be different for someone else.

@RoadsideRC 2 роки тому

Thanks for the detailed feedback. If using the ReveD tire on carpet, I could possibly see what you are talking about...but otherwise I am still skeptical. I'll keep trying and see if I can feel what you are talking about.

@louddesignzrc38 2 роки тому

Yeah there is always personal preference and a lot of the comps are running ds racing lf5 or the FFFF tires so keep that in mind as well when choosing the next batch of tires. As far as the foams are concerned every wheel set you get from mst has the foams so it’s more abundant to get rims to change up rather than the foams for different wheels they also sell rubber rings to eliminate the foam as well.

The slight angle on the tyres are to help with camber and turning and transioning angles upon this also built for different terrain types most yokomo is used for asphalt but ware out very quickly as where I live there is no local track that allows me to attend a track such as u have without driving miles from my home which I don't drive

@sikolikhole 2 роки тому

I got into rc drifting partially cause your videos, I do not regret it. There is some much to learn and I've learned a ton. Thank you for making vids man. DRC tires are meant for low reaction surface such as carpet, color concrete and p-tile. They are also softer and square. DRA tires are for a high traction surface, asphalt, and bare concrete. These are much harder and rounded. Reve-D are a comp Tire so they'll be the similar to the DRC's. Wheels are also a big factor, a softer wheel will flex, letting the tire grip a bit more. Mixing tire sets front to back could have some surprising results.

@RoadsideRC 2 роки тому

Tony - glad to hear you are enjoying drifting! What chassis do you have? We have changed to different fronts occasionally. In fact, that is probably what I will do with a few of these leftover sets I now have. I will end up giving them away, or using them as fronts.

@sikolikhole 2 роки тому

I have the YD2 it was an E but I have the rear motor conversion. I like the DRA's for the front. They are harder and rounded they seem to slip more, I haven't tried them on p-tile yet though. I have mainly used the DRC's and reve-d tires on ptile. I just got my car acting the way I wanted so I was comfortable mixing tires.

@RoadsideRC 2 роки тому

ReveD actually has a different sidewall profile. One is curved, one is more flat. They say it is for performance and is very important...

@DJ.1001 Рік тому

I drift on epoxy sealed concrete that can get a bit dusty sometimes. We run MST Golds but some guys have started switching to the AS-01 because they are easier to get. On this surface they are similar, the gold seems to have more side bite but it's hard to tell. We can run together with those tires.

@RoadsideRC Рік тому

Interesting! Our local track was an epoxy concrete and we also used MST Gold for the longest time. We then decided to try Yokomo DRA - and they helped us slow the cars down a lot. It was really nice. But - that matched the size of our track at the time as well. It was rather small.

@danielmoriarty751 Рік тому

The tires go on directional for fitment. the inside of the tire is slightly larger than the outside of the tire. This is to help keep the tires on the rim. You will also notice a difference in the inside and outside the lip of most rims. So yeah it’s strictly for fitment and has nothing to do with performance. By the way I really enjoy your videos keep up the awesome work

@RoadsideRC Рік тому

What I talk about with the ReveD in this video is directly from their manual. They claim a difference based on how the tire is mounted.

@danielmoriarty751 Рік тому

Another great scientific test Brother !! We run on concrete mostly and the Yokomo DRC seems to be our standard. I've tried quite a few different tires like you.

@RoadsideRC Рік тому

I have not personally drifted on those surfaces, so I don't have a strong opinion here. I tend to like Yokomo tires. DRA goes faster, DRC is slower. Pick the tire based on the size of your space and how fast the track is. I would start with the DRC.

@robinkesterlives 11 місяців тому

Hiya! I drift on vinyl planks, they are both lightly textured w fake wood grain and super slick. I run a rear top mount MST RMX w stock gearing on a D10 motor and 10BL120 ESC. My goto tires are as follows... 1) Grip - MST Gold, hands down the perfect speed tire on this floor w lots of drift. 2) Control - MST Silver, the perfect combo of slip and grip, slows down your sessions but keeps them mildly fast. 3) Ice Dancing - DS Racing LF-3, these are the perfect ice dancing tires for a slow precise drift session. The force me to slow down considerably and up my accuracy quite a bit.

@cultureisnotyourfriend3458 Місяць тому

The different profile of the edge of the tire is for clearance on the body's I believe. They also do that on the tires and wheels made for the smaller wheel openings like the Toyota AE86 and other older and smaller body styles.

Hi there! Good news - I think you are in luck on both accounts. There is a company that makes a smaller looking rim. It still uses the same tires, but the outer lip of the rim is designed to look like an extension of the tire. This gives the illusion of running a smaller diameter rim.

Super-G also has this one...which is about as close as you get easily: supergdrift.com/store/product/2003-ford-mustang-cobra-body-set-aplastics/ Check out the DeltaPlastik, Aplastics, and McAllister Racing bodies.

@RoadsideRC 2 роки тому

It is that surface you see the car on in the video. It is a plastic tile that is frequently used in office buildings / commercial areas.

I think the reve d's different left-right shoulder shape is more functional for the front end. Due to the caster effect, the tires will create some camber angle when the steering is turned during drifting. The leading and trailing tires (when the car is in a drift) will then have different contact points to the floor, one tire will touch the floor with the outer shoulder and the opposite tire will touch the floor with the inner shoulder, and I should think that reve d engineers optimize the shoulder shapes to allow for more effective drifting..
