Not intentionally yet, but eventually I hope to learn how. I'll probably need to learn in rain for it to work with my NA anyways.

i try to get a little practice in every day. i like how my favorite parking lot is a little gravelly so i dont have to shock the drivetrain with the clutch drop that much

Sliding is fun

clutch dumps are effective but learning proper drift driving techniques will keep your drivetrain stronger over a much bigger time .

The old scandinavian flick helps on alot of them .

Yup I drift. In fact there's an event coming up on May 25th, involving Signal Auto's famed drivers Fumiaki Komatsu and Kazuya Bai will be returning to Hawaii with their newly built "Drifter Twins" (S15 front Sil-Eighties) to challenge Hawaii's best drifters, that I will be entering. There's a qualifying session this Saturday...I hope I make it in. The event is only allowing 18 vehicles to enter the event competition.

YA Initial D FC, i've seen your video. AWESOME!

I drift... but because my suspention is SO BAD i really only do it in the rain right now. If i do a dry drift my rear end bounces like a basketball. quite dangerous, and i dont feel like breaking anything.

So i 'practice' in the rain. all in good fun.

Hell Nope!
I love my car to much and well I agree with Michael Schumacher when he said, "I don't like spinning my tires. I feel like I am breaking things."

I pretty much tarmac rally race my way to work when it rains. but I have quite a few really sharp corners that I can see through, damn I'm lucky.
