I don't mean to be a negative nancy, but are you even driving in this pic, it looks like you positioned the car this way, so it'd look like you were drifting, your car has no body roll whatsoever, which even the tightest suspension will do when drifting, second, your rear and front tires don't even appear to be spinning. Third it doesn't look like shutter speed, cause you can tell the truck is actually moving forward. I hope I'm wrong, cause that would be dope if you did drift that corner, but it sure as hell doesn't look like anything but a pose.... sorry

 

is this crow canyon. if it is how did you manage to find a time its not cluttered with backroad commuters?

 

Got two nice roads here. Here's a vid of the one that is maintained normally (in my friends S2000).

This is a full run from one side to another. The side we started on the elevation is about 5200ft, it peaks at 8800ft, and then goes down to 6200ft on the other end. Fun place.

 

+1 LOL

there isnt even a hint of tire smoke man, come on

 

sad face you could have atleast have tried to PS it

 

heres a pic from google earth of the usual spot. not the whole thing but id say the funnest part.
hoping to have my car up and running again soon so i'll get more pics

 

bumpity bump

keep this thread going guys. i love reading these stories

 

.. Uhh yeah? What's your point, it's obvious you're trying to be the biggest negative nancy ever so why even bother writing a post so long explaining the faults?

Point is: it's a nice pic, pose looks cool, clean looking car = win.

 

How low is your 7 running?

 

IMO, faking drifting = The biggest lose possible

He's not trying to pose, he's faking an action shot. I think thats stupid, sorry

 

what happened to this thread it used to be awesome now we have a bunch of ppl bashing his action shot. So what if its fake, how about you post one that is real with yourself in it. Come on guys bring this thread back to life with some stories and/or new pics

 

Oh I'm plannin on it, one of my really good friends (with an FC) just moved back into town last night, and we're goin up tonight! I'll be postin some pics and videos. I don't need to fake it. I'm confused on why you all are hatin on me! I've supplied this thread with tons of pics and videos.

All I did was ask if it was real or not, never got a response, just tons of hate, proving it isn't real. So don't blame me!!!

 

i know you post some pretty interesting stuff all i want is more and like you I also asked for a video of that same shot

 

you guys need to just stop hating and post some damn pictures
some people like to fake their pictures, whether its real or not it doesn't matter its a cool picture.
anyway, you guys should download google earth if you dont have it, find your touges and post a screen shot.
im sure you can take out the coordinates if you dont want people knowing where it is. but just for the sake of the thread, it would be cool to see.

 

Here are the shots of where I drive, I'll post shots of the other one close to me in a bit.



This is probably my favorite section (its in another pic but i got close for this one)

 

Here are the shots of the best places on the other road, I didn't take it all because there are some long straight sections that are boring.

 

And the other road I know about around me, I don't drive this one too often because it's about 2 hours away but it's quite fun as well.











Yea lots of pics I know, sorry.

 

To the picture comments of the white TII drifting... Have you guys ever seen pictures of amateur drifting? It's not going to have **** tons of tire smoke and crazy 100mph blur w/ techniques photographers use to have **** published in magazines.

Give the guy a break. It looks as if it were taken w/ a point and shoot, explaining the fast shutter speed and non-blur effect most of you expect. Get off his nuts about it. lol.

 

lol yea i know its bad it was a 2 minute photoshop.

 

holy giant slow-loading pics batman!



i went for a drive in the mtns this weekend, didnt take a lot of pics though

 

This is the only pic I could find of the road in the first set of pics. Pic is at the peak of the road.

 

gxl90rx7, ur roads look really fun! Man I hope I can tour america and go to all the best roads.

Are you ready for my criticism, not hatin, just noticing. How come ur in third gear right there? Under 3k rpm, thats like no power. You shoulda been in second floorin it right there!!!

zoom-zoom... not cruise-cruise

 

those mountains have gravel roads on them or are they paved?

gravel FTW

 

the main road on all of them are paved, but they all have gravel roads that shoot off to random places. but most of them require a lifted 4x4 to get anywhere on.

 

bump...

MOAR pics.
