Drifting Steering Ratio

Im setting my fc3s up for some up coming drifting events an i came across a drifting article in a magazine which read that the car had two extra teeth machined into the steering gear. How is this done and what is used to do it.

two extra teeth = extra steering angle = big opposite lock = big slide
that mean you can begin slide at faster speed and have more slide angle without spin

any other idea? that is just what i think.

anything is possible. it all depends on how much it is worth it to you. that will be a custom job.

Don't even bother - you can't do it.
