haha, soon to be fc driver here.
i've waited soooo long.
but finally i have one.
just got to bring it back to life.
colorado has great mountain roads but the city roads are horrid.
pot holes, random holes sometimes 3 feet wide!
i think it may mostly but up north by denver, but it makes driving even normal family cars annoying.
the weather changes so fast here its nuts.
but yeah, touge's fun.
city, not.

well since it is winter/wet season....not a whole lot of touge runs go on. usually in my touge i run into wet and dry spots so it gets hard to get everyone out (everyone usually goes to drift the touge and its hard with wet and dry spots) that and it gets icy if its not raining. but two weekends ago it was dry enough and we had a good group driving up and there was a new comer to our group who drove an alteza (is 300). anyways he was telling me how he drifted the drift turn once and was getting used to it in the touge. well with my friend mark tearing the drift turn up with only parking lights on. the alteza guy wanted to rep so he tried with just fog lights on and his first attempt with only fogs on he got the oversteer he wanted and then all the sudden.....under steer and he just slid straight with his car sideways. so passenger side going face first into the wall. when this all happened everyone cringed until he hit and everyone said..."ohh...ouch" so we check it out and his cars front passenger side was crushed into his wheel well.....
long story short....dong get cocky on the touge especially if your new to it, you'll ef up your car.

well for me it about being mad tyte lol i just drift for fun, and the touge spots around here are too full of locals coming home from bars to drift. let alone doing touge runs up and down hill twice. usually i do one run up and one run down and just chill on the beautiful mountain haha
