The wing is dope. The canards on the end need to go. Really. Put something bad *** on there. Grab some cardboard, a fine point felt tip pen, a hot knife, some dry carbon sheets and make something better.

Now, check this fd.




That's a sick ******* spoiler.

Actually, the car is pretty sick all together.

well it doesnt matter about looks again..the fc is becoming back to zombie mode again. both my rear tires exploded at the same time drifting at over 80mph at el toro.. So strange, I had set the rear tires at 30psi cold,and it still managed to over expand itself...

100+mph top of 4th gear entry is way awesome town.. even then it still wasnt enough to get picked for d1 undergound.. Even Nick Hogan got it...and he couldnt even keep up with me during tandems few weeks ago. owell, I guess its not my time yet.

Nick hogan huh...


Fix that ****, i saw how much a gallon of paint was from ebay....

also iirc el toro runways have a coating on them that provides extra grip for the aircraft while landing. so extra friction plus your tires spinning quick enough to produce smoke = a **** ton of heat

Here are some shitty street clips. I'm still getting used to the car... spinning 18s with a low horsepower NA is not so great!

I still feel really lame at driving this thing, so hopefully I will get better as I keep practicing and getting used to the car.


More on the blog of course

Ditch the 18's and get some 15's.... I went through the same thing -it's doable -but sucks.

^Dude, go turbo and never worry about losing a drift like that!

DKwasherexed:
All of the "official drift" circuits are buddy buddy when it comes to judging. Friends and celebs will always do better than the unknown guy.

I don't care about those things. The rules are biased and it kind of takes the fun out of drifting for me. Sure, I'd compete but it's not going to kill me if I never get a medal/invite.
