Needs a front bar imo ;) Have you tried drifting it yet? I notice with my car its a little to sloppy on the front wheels atm do you have this issue? But in saying that i don't have adjustable sway bars yet to stiffen it up a bit.

Umm what is there not to get about drifting?
I just mean I don't find it entertaining nor am I interested in taking part in it - for me getting a car around a track/road in the quickest and most efficient way possible is exciting, not how sideways the car gets.

Oh I wouldn't argue it takes great skill and hours of practice! Definitely an art form - I just can't see it as motorsport though, and it kinda makes me cringe watching the abuse the cars go through - maybe I have too much mechanical sympathy.
