Anyone here into drifting?

torquecars · April 26th, 2007, 11:49 AM

I see track, Drag, circuit but what about drifting? Any of you guys into drifting or that regulaly do drift days. Over in the UK we have a really limited amount of RWD cars (BMW, Altezza and Ford Sierra

). How much money do you reckon it would take to make a stang a good drift car?

All that I'd need I think according to this drift link is a stiffer suspension and diff. Do you think you can get away with a standard car with no mods?

drifting ehhh eh eh

BWAL · April 26th, 2007, 10:29 PM

if you know what you are doing, yes, a stock mustang would be a pretty good drift car IMO

I personally dont like drifting but I know its similar to a powerslide they powerslide all daylong so it might.

i wouldnt even attempt to drift i would just hurt myself ive seen that shit on speed network yea i prefer straight line or even some circle or road course action but no thanks and i saw one competition where they had a stang in it and it driffted like a dream i belive they said he had hella suspension upgrades thou

i think drifting is cool, i can drift my car on the highway off ramps but not to bad, im going down to NJ for the D1 drift series, first one on the east coast

I like drifting. Ive done a few short drifts/powerslides around corners on desert back-roads and I try to imagine what it would be like to do an all out real drift through a turn on a track. Im sure it could be one of the best feelings u can get driving a car.

GreenFaleen · May 3rd, 2007, 07:44 PM

Real drifting is an amazing rush and a lot of fun riding with someone who knows what they are doing.

thats some vids of it drifting

more than anything your going to want to upgrade suspension and add a bit of horsepower and practice

TurboLX · May 4th, 2007, 06:08 PM

yo GF hows your build going??

Thewolfman456 · May 4th, 2007, 06:17 PM

Well dude, I never was one for drifting. I like to keep my car on the 1/8th and 1/4th mile tracks. I'll let the imports do all the drifting.

TurboLX · May 5th, 2007, 01:35 AM

dude i think going sideways is a lot more fun then going straight, it gives you more of a blast of fun, and imports arent the only ones that drift ither

KingKelleyxSHREDx · September 6th, 2007, 07:40 PM

right now the imports are being beat by domestics.
