tooooo much weeed.

A LESSON FROM A HARDCORE SMOKER:
if your really hardcore you can just smoke out of your hands. make a loose fist but keep your fingers together and pack the entire empty space in the middle with herb. then open up your pinky finger enough so that the herb doesnt fall out but you can light it. then just breath in from the top hole and ull get mad respect -eastar5

I think there was a book or a movie called Drifters. Not too sure about it though.

If you have the money to build a powerful enough car, and then have the money to afford a new set of tires every 5-10 miles, more power to you.

Atlantaski what?

dont need a supa powerful car to drift, just hard suspension and shit tyres. you can get a pretty good dori weapon for about 5 grand. good clean fun here.
just keep your american shitbox boats out of the scene, drifting a gto is about as gay as shoving your fist up your ass.

^^^yeah i dont think there should be american cars either. they dont look as good as the 240's and corolas. ^^ dont the judges base the scores off of the angle of the car and how much smoke they shoot off their tires? thats wat the guy said on TV like 3 days ago.

^uhhh ive seen about 2hrs of drifting footage and i never really see much smoke. are you thinking about the 360's people do and jsut burn out their tires and shit. creating huge clouds of white smoke?

cuz if you watch driftworks its like a whole race and you dont see much smoke. you gun it going around the corner making ur tires spin and lose traction so the backend flings out and you steer around the corner.

ive drifted my civic before and never gotten smoke but i dont have rear wheel drive so its not a tru drift. i just go around corners fast and the front is alot heavier so the back end loses traction. i have kumho ecsta ultra high performance summer tires on my ride 205-45-16 and they grip like a mother fucker.

there is no smoke in drifting. the wheels dont stay in one spot long enough to make smoke.

^probably converted... alot of the drifting cars are converted like old hondas and toyotas, since they are small and low to the grund

the best way to learn how to drift is get a rear wheel drive car with stiff suspension and do right aafter it rains you still get the same fun but with out wrecking your tires as fast and bimmer works awsome get an 325is or any of their cars with sport suspension and they drift out way good me and my freind go out all the time watch for cops though you can get some big tickets

Yah they just the drifts by how the crowd reacts to the drift, usually smoke get the crowd more pumped so they would get more points for that, but yah u defint need a rear wheel drive car, other then that it really aint a true drift.

drifts are actually rated on speed into corners how far out your back end gets and how many drifts you can link and of corse smoothness throughout the race

I've drifted my Subaru. On pavement. Dry pavement.

It was badass. But I swear I'm never doing it again.

I was a fucking rally master this winter though, I know the roads to the local hill by heart, so I would bust through all these nasty curves sideways, it was great. Only on the sections where you could see long down the road though, no need to drift sideways into an oncoming car; that would suck more than a hoover.

you need good tires for drifting. drifting is about breaking traction when necessary, not never having traction.

so don't get shitty tires, use like falken st115 or fm901's but they aren't as good as the falkens.

drifting in rain is gay.

you need a clutch type lsd to drift.

initial D is for homosexuals

d1 grand prix is for gays.

bm hai is much better.

and vince pru you're a big douche for saying life goals to build a car like that.

the 3 components is LSD, Suspension, and Seat.

then track time

then buy some parts

more track time.

etc

its not the CAR! its the DRIVER

the reason i said shit tyres is cos most people cant afford to wreck good ones.
a friend of mine has a weapon of a sil80, small turbo, always on boost, no body kit, RAISED front and back bars, rear suspension so stiff you can feel the painted lines on the road. front tyres: 225/45/r18, rear tyres: 65/r16's. cant afford to smack good ones, but yes, better tyres are less likely to snap oversteer and just break out nice and smooth.
