Hey everybody. My name's Harrison, i'm 17, i live in Alabama and i'm a fairly big drift enthusiast. I'm not a drifter yet, thus is why i'm wanting a rx-7. I currently own a 1992 Acura integra, that at this time, i am less than one week of completing my first engine swap(b20b less than 30k on the motor) and i also have a 1988 mercedes-benz 300e. My plan is, after i'm done with my integra is im going to sell my mercedes and buy a fc and make it my drifter. My favorite car in the whole world is a 1984 Porsche 944. low standards.. i know. i was planning on actually getting one. i found one that i'd have to rebuild for $800, but it was not going to work out for me. too much money to put into it, so its going to be a future life project. this is my 2nd forum to join, i also am on drift.com alot, and i have a fellow friend on there that is also on here, K!nch. He's the one that had introduced me into the rx-7 actually; which was quite a time ago now. The rx-7 is one of my favorite cars now, ever since i figured out exactly how they work, well i just fell in love with that triangle you know? well im really hoping to get one sometime soon.Im not your casual drifter who trashes their cars. If i get one im going to do everything the RIGHT WAY! so i am here to learn what i am needed to know, for the future. i hope that this hasnt been boring, and thanks for letting me introduce myself to this forum.

Well now, I know I'm going to get a beating for saying this, but I've always thought the 2ndgen rexes looked a whole bunch like the Porsche 944! Hands down, it's going to be cheaper to fix up and drift the RX-7, so choice well made!

Welcome aboard, Harrison, that was a fantastic intro post.

haha a beating!? no way! i totally think they look identical aswell! but most definately! i'm just gonna wait til im older and have a family to get one.
thanks alot though dude! really lookin forward to all the knowledge im gonna gain on being here. I've already learned so much on drift.com and its not even the third the size of it is on here, so think about how much im gonna learn here! ^.^

It's a pleasure to meet you by the way.

Welcome man.. im new too... also big in to drifting. buddy of mine made me fall in love with 7's along time ago aswell

Dr1ft@gious

haha sweet sweet. you should hit up some reading threads and get that count up. but how's the scene up in ohio? my best friends family is from up there, hoping i can go up there sometime.

fc_newb

there is but there isnt a scene... very shadowed and hidden.. theres a group of us that do it but where all split.. some only do street. some only do track. some do both.. unfortainly all i can say is im one of the dumba$$ who do street.. but i havnt had a rwd car for about 3 months now haha hopefully it will change tho

Dr1ft@gious

well be safe dude. im not really any designated type. which ever i can practice on. like we have a place that we go to practice but its not a track. when im ready ill go to a track or something for an event. which ever happens.

fc_newb

yea.. they have a track here but its an oval track and have heard its kinda a pain, because of the banked turns . ( its a circle track with a figure 8 layout build in to it) kilkare.. they have some events out there but.. personally not enought variables for me.. i like it complicated and where things can change in a matter of seconds.. n yes i know the dangers of it. but to each its own right? haha but tracks are fun every now n then... n im picking up my fc tomorrow =D

Dr1ft@gious

awesome dude! pm me somes pics!, if you dont mind. but that makes sense. your track seems alot better than ours though.

fc_newb

sent... ill post up more in there when i snag the car tomorrow
