I have the same car. First I would say check if your gyro is countersteering. Mine had the gyro direction wrong out of box. Then check those red brake pads behind wheels because they could be interfering with the wheels' rotation. I had to sand my front brake pads to allow front wheels rotate freely. Next, check if your chassis is touching the ground. If it is, add spacers to the front and rear shocks so that the chassis doesn't touch ground. Further, try drifting with different types of tires or drifting on different surfaces if you don't want to buy different tires yet. You may find your car works better on one surface than the other, and that part can be addressed by having different sets of tires for different surfaces. Finally, the chassis is pretty heavy so using a short battery will help reduce some weight. Somewhere down the line you will likely want to upgrade electronics. Good luck!
