trying to drift on california roads, or roads in general

Parking Lots.

People can talk all the crap they want about doing it, but if you can't afford the car control classes (~$1,000 here in WA) at least take your ass to a big, empty parking lot after hours (see 11:00pm-1:00am). You can learn a lot spinning a car around a bit and no matter what anyone says, we've all done it.

Live and learn. Pray you don't kill anyone in the process. Mostly, be smart about it and again, BIG, EMPTY PARKING Lot. Just don't hump one of those cement parking blocks. Fuck those piss me off.

Bro I was on this 4 lane busy road saw a yellow light coming up and I had to turn ASAP, double clutched into 3rd at 75 mph power shifted back into 4th for more tq, and fucking just held it at FULL lock through the massive intersection, I looked at everybodies faces and dey were like yo that was illest.

I enjoy getting sideways every now and then.
In Particular, right-hand turns when its slick, and no one's around.
...Or on the twisty back mountain roads when I have a good viewpoint.
However, with my new 13 Button OBC, I have become very MPG-conscious.
Doing that shit on public roads is stupid though.

There is a U turn I have to take every time I go to my fraternity house. It's a 2x4 lane avenue, no possibility of hitting anything there. I don't think I ever made a U turn without kicking the tail out a bit. Every time I increase the distance driven sideways, and I also like scaring my passengers shitless when I have any.
It is a lot of fun, but I only do it there. No kids running around, no traffic, no nothing in the way.

what pants?!?!

ahahahahaahaa you so got me there.... damn.
i actually was wearing my pajamas at the moment. (just driving the thing around the block a few times)

[Pantless Spency]

you guys seem to have misinterpreted my post.
i had a silly idea to have my ass end out going slow, it ended up being way more scary than i thought.
i then decided if i want to do anything stupid/reckless such as this again i will do so on a track.

thats me pretty much trying to sum up my OP.

i do this all the time in the rain. but only in two areas

big left turn by my house: when there is no traffic
freeway on wramp: Because i get out of school at 10pm so no one is around and its pretty slick at bottom of the wramp

hey pantless, you're gonnna get shit from everyone for being dumb on public roads, sorry but you opened a can of worms. im not saying i dont do dumb shit nor that i've never been in cars with people doing 95mph in a 40 zone :D, and yeah its fun!

remember, all fun and games till someone gets hurt.

i was drifting an old chrysler lebaron up on dirt mulholand last year, ripping the ebrake around the curves, i ended up in a ditch and had my buddy come up with his hummer to pull my dumbass out.
shit gets real, real fast when you see cliff and wall!

GL and dont die!

Im 16 and since Ive done autox I have never felt the urge to drive 10/10s (aka dorifto) on the street.

If you do ur asking for trouble. Once you take your car to the real limit over and over, you realize the street can never be a safe place to drive like that.

yep!
thats why if i ever want to venture that road, i'll go to a track. i only live 30 mins from infineon (searspoint....) anyways
