Precision handling from the 3RACING Sakura D5 Sport Lite

Built for serious drifters, the 3RACING Sakura D5 Sport Lite blends chassis refinement and durable construction to recreate the feel of real-world drifting. This kit focuses on balance and controllability so drivers can dial in smooth slides and consistent corner entries.

Chassis geometry tuned for drift control

The Sakura D5 Sport Lite uses a layout that promotes even weight distribution and low rotational inertia. That balance improves transition speed and helps maintain stable slides. The overall build quality keeps the rig stiff where needed while allowing the compliance required for controlled drifting lines.

Adjustable suspension for track setup

Suspension on the D5 is engineered with drift tuning in mind, including camber and toe adjustments to tailor the chassis to different surfaces. The setup range makes it straightforward to switch between indoor carpet, smooth concrete, or rougher outdoor asphalt circuits.

Choose your power and pace

This is a kit-only platform, so you can pick the motor and ESC that match your driving style. Whether you fit a compact brushless combo for high revving response or a brushed setup for predictable torque, the Sakura D5 Sport Lite accepts a wide range of electronics for a personalised performance balance.

The 3RACING Sakura D5 Sport Lite is a versatile drift platform that rewards setup time and sensible upgrades, making it a great pick for club drifters and newcomers focused on progression.

Assembly is straightforward for anyone familiar with kit builds; basic tools and patience for alignment are the main requirements. The instructions guide the core assembly and mounting points.
The Sakura D5 accepts common 1/10 motor formats; many drivers choose a short can brushless for a compact fit or a standard 540-sized motor depending on space and drive preference.
Soft compound drift tyres are ideal for indoor carpet and smooth tarmac, while firmer compounds help control slides outdoors. Match tyres to surface grip and adjust toe or camber to refine slip angle.
Basic hobby tools plus a camber gauge or simple alignment block are helpful but not essential. Many adjustments can be made by feel and iterative testing on the track.
