HAHAHA perfect!

 

Yeah thats exactly what i thought....before a tree and a viscious curb told me otherwise....

My first accident was also in a pretty unpopulated place, and like you, i thought i had my "drifting" down just right.

(some of you may remember this)




Now i know 2 things:
1. Drifting where people have any likeliness to be, is just a straight up BAD IDEA and SHOULDNT BE DONE EVER!
2. Camaros are not built for drifting


I feel so fortunate that someone wasnt walking on that sidewalk, or they would just be straight up dead. Killing an innocentperson is something you can never forget. It will haunt you for the rest of your life, and you will always walk around with a guilty concience, not to mention a license-less wallet.(thats if youre allowed bail from your MURDER trial.)

Please. please. please. There are places for this kind of thing. Obviously the track is the #1 place for this, but kids dont have the 150 track fee, and track days arent very often.
But there are at least less threatening to other people places. Find some back roads, and take a friend, incase something happens. Never hit up the touge without a partner, or someday you will pay.

The one thing people who love the adrenaline rush of a fast car tend to forget is, If you are trying to become a better, faster driver, you WILL crash into something SOMEDAY, andyou would MUCH rather it be a dirt wall, over a person. You are learning, and you can not learn without taking a little extra risk, and a little extra risk means bad things can and most likely will happen.

I think dave mirra said it best with the words "Show me a rider who has never taken a fall, and i will show you a rider who has accomplished nothing"

 

yup i remember you showing us that before jeff

 

i read the first 1 1/2 pages. 50ul sweet deal dude. all haters... if he were doing this on an open road i would most definatly call him retarted also but he was ina neighborhood that was not built, nothing to hit and nobody to injur, if the guy wants to experiment in a closed road i don't seea problem with it. i did it in my honda couple times a few years back and had a blast. that's my .02

 

thats all well and good, except you cant drift a FWD car

 

well you can't technically "drift" it but you can make it appear to be drifting. i don't keep up w/ the ciruites or anything but i've heard of a guy in a honda that is in the drifting curcuit and is tearing up the competition....

 

Appearing to be drifting and drifting are two VERY different things, Ron... would you want to date a guy that APPEARED to be a girl?? Case closed.
Secondly, from someone who wrecks nearly everything they drive... dont try it.... lol

 

come on Josh, dating and drifting are competely different things. if i saw a honda keeping up w/ prossional "real" drifters... he's MOST DEFINATLYhave my respect. he's gotta do twice as much as a real drifter and i would have to think that it woudl be twice as hard. that's just me.

 

It would seem to me that hed have to do 1/2 as much work. Whereever he points the front tires of that car... when he punches the gas THATS where its going... it seems to me that the purpose of drifting is actually LOSING control as the power to therear wheels pushes the car no matter WHAT way the front end points(on purpose) and then proving your worth by regaining control all at high speed.
