So i started my project in Jan, and my first drift day is on the 9th here in colorado. ive never been drifting before so does anyone have any pointers for me?
im going to be taking an auto 94 sc300 , im going to bring a 50 - 75 - & 115 shot jets cuz i don't know witch i will need to keep it sideways. and i want to conserve as much nitrous as i can. i will only be bringing 20lbs of it other than that someone will be providing me with a pair of 16' wheels and tires to use and a helmet. but ive never been drifting before so im nervous about the idea only drifting i have ever done is the occasional 2nd gear drop getting on to the highway.

before you go:
do a normal check up on the car (fluids, tires, belts, e-brake)
while there:
let an instuctor ride with you on a few runs. visit the burnout area to figure out how to feel out the car. bring plenty of water and a positive attitude. Have fun and post pictures.

well considering it was raining and this is a back yard OVAL track... then yeah you saw a car taking turns fast. Joey-E is it that time of the month? or do you just like to play E-thug on the internet?

Drifting refers to a driving technique where the driver intentionally over steers, causing loss of traction in the rear wheels through turns, while maintaining vehicle control and a high exit speed. A car is drifting when the rear slip angle is greater than the front slip angle prior to the corner apex, and the front wheels are pointing in the opposite direction to the turn (e.g. car is turning left, wheels are pointed right or vice versa), and the driver is controlling these factors.
So YES, he was drifting- look at the front wheel turning into the drift, it doesn't matter that the oval was wet... Of course he's not professional yet, this was just for fun obviously. You should have known you would get a negative response when you called him cute... Wait... you think Grant is cute?! WTFfff

What not true? You act like knowing how to weight transfer a car and properly hold it while sliding without spinning out is something everyone knows how to do. All I said was that for someone who has never drifted before you don't just jump into a car and be able to drift.

You're getting very defensive and argumentative...^^^
So now it IS drifting? You said something a man did was cute... Deal with your emotions. LOL
Please stop lashing out at people, this is a public forum for the enjoyment of Soarer's and SC's!

I stated my opinions i was replied back with a personal attack by both of you so i replied back to the attacks.
I never said it was i said, “it needs work” and “if you think thats drifting ok” thats your opinion not mine.
I said the vid was cute with the wanna be drifting and crappy techno/pop music at a attempt to be some kind of expert or instructional video. Cute in a way a chihuahua steps to or acts like a pitbull kind of cute lol ..
Lashing at people? I did not, just stated my opinions and replied to the negative replies by you 2 made against me with PMS/homosexual negative tones don’t try to make it like im replying for no reason I stated my opinion was called out on it and I replied back. and yes i know doesn’t take a genius to know that this is a public forum for the enjoyment of SCs/ Soarers and that’s why im here.
But for the sake of Cl and myself I will exist this thread, if anyone has anything else to say feel free to PM me
Have fun.

and...
Sounds good, please don't post anymore
The above first post by you has rather negative connotations, I think anyone can see that- which is why I informed you about the definition of drifting, and then wondered why you would call someones drifting "cute" and now "like a Chihuahua" ...Compared to your "Mad Pitbull drifting skills" I suppose?? I'm sure Grant would welcome you to his track to test your skills...
Ok now hopefully we can get back to HELPING a fellow CLer to be ready for his first drift event, please?
