My first time drifting

[thebutcher37]

doritos.. I mean Dorifto

Most likely wont be for a while but yes we should get some guys into sliding to go. Would be lots of fun.

Count me in on the M42 Drift Brigade!

Oddly enough, Top Gear might help a bit... my g/f has watched Jezza slide around the test track and said, "that looks like fun... I might try that."

:shock:

(literally... that's the face I made...)

Unfortunately, I think a few scary moments in her old E36 M3 made her leary of RWD cars (now drives a MINI), but if I can talk her into trying it, I could be persuaded to keep my E30...

I've wanted to try drifting for years... but right now, with my car sitting in my garage with a broken #1 rocker arm from auto-x, I'm a bit gun-shy about reving the engine like that again. :(

American drifting, flatbilled Block wannabes. Nuff said.

We're also a decade behind dont forget, its gonna take some time to catch up ;)

Those who actually do it right, +1. I need to get the 325 running so I don't have to trailbrake in order to slide.

Awesome!

*thumbs up*

whats your setup?

[mRodiek]

Im sure youve heard of the Keep Drifting Fun stuff goin on, all about the fun aspect of Drifting [obviously] rather than competition.

It is unfortunate how many people look down on drifting, but then again with the American drifting the way it is..cant really blame em

[etxxz]

nice vid welded diff must be fun while wet and slick

and ****ing exited that i'm moving to san francisco (san carlos) for a new job soon so i can take my bimmer to this place! i was driving to napa last weekend, drove past infineon and shit my pants i didnt it was there! then laguna seca is near too man i'm golden! i'll hit you up, i would like to need to meet people around there (in FL now) that know where to find events and the likes. Good job for your first time ; /

I wish drifting wasnt so looked down upon by so many, its awesome!

It's understandable for it to be looked down upon, you get a lot of idiots going to it, and then they end up trying it on the streets, and wrecking while putting other people in danger. (I know a few people who do that.)

how do you like the m42 for drifting?

Honestly? It's very underpowered in the dry, but in the wet, it was fine. If I kept it over 3 grand I could go across the entire skidpad sideways, and with the 3.73 it went to about 60 at 7K. It was very, very fun.

Most likely wont be for a while but yes we should get some guys into sliding to go. Would be lots of fun.

Let me know!

Haha nice meeting you that day Ian, was fun being thrown around in there, hopefully I can take my e30 out to a skid pad and learn a thing or two once it's up and running again!

Great meeting you! Sorry about how harsh I was that run. :D Hope to see your car out there! It's a great lesson in car control, no doubt.

How can people look down upon it? Controlled oversteer is fucking awesome.

The applied driving behind it is awesome, but the people it draws are fucking retarded sometimes.

honestly i think its cause of all the fanboy wanna be drifters. Or lame ass kids who think street drifting is cool.

It really is disappointing because it truly is an awesome sport.

Oh a lighter note I think I heard something about another drift bible coming out ???
good techniques and tips for gettin slidewayz yo

That.

I honestly watched it (the drift bible) and kept everything in mind. You can hear me being a retard in one of the videos and saying "Braking dorifto!"

It's a lot of fun, but riding fulltrack was just as awesome. Thunder Hill has the best elevation change ever.



Yes. You must. Inform me when you plan on going, I need to see some M42Turbo in my life.
